Back from holidays :)

Sat Aug 20, 2011, 11:18 AM by =Ln213:iconLn213:


So I'm back from holidays :B

And here is a link I wanted to share with you all: the GIMP handbook [link]
It's really interesting to go through and maybe you'll find something you didn't know yet :eyes:

Also, I wanted to thank =Jibodeah for re-doing the group rules blog and cleaning it up so awesome! :tighthug: It's now a lot easier to get the important points :P

Oh and ~Geosammy let us know that he corrected the file type for his Gimp Rainbow Brushes [link] so they should work now. Just in case anybody downloaded those before the fix :meow:

I haven't actually installed GIMP 2.8 yet so I don't know but you can get answers by going to GIMPchat since there are quite a few of the developers there that have installed GIMP 2.8 and can help

Also I'm working on the chrome effect to image - you requested and I'm just perfecting it and making it as shiny as possible - I should post the video and written tutorial either today or tomorrow.

Oh no don't worry now, it's all fixed! XD Thanks so much though! It turns out that it just looked yellowish because my sister pointed out that the background in Gimp is grey, which made my colours stand out but in my pictures folder it's white and it's more dominant, making my colours appear to have a yellow tinge. Now I've uploaded it on Deviantart and the grey background keeps my natural colours in! I'm happy now :dance:

Thanks again!

I know it's lazy to ask here but I don't actually know where to look x.X

I think there was a good tutorial for this but i don't find anywhere... I'm trying to do Magic Circles, but it's hard to find tutos about it on gimp, and a normal circle on gimp seems too pixeled =/

Any tips? X.X

ummm, what are "magic circles" :? How are they different exactly from the normal ones (besides pixelated, cause GIMP iis pixel-based)?
