@atarifrosch You mean from the Resynthesizer plug-in? It has never been a part of core GIMP. Though we have always recommended it to people. It's a great plug-in! I'm pretty sure it will soon be ported to GIMP 3.0 (in fact, I know there is already a branch on their repo for GIMP 3 API), especially as it is maintained by one of our core developers these days.   @runarcn As a non-joke answer, I think LIMA, Libre Image Manipulation Application would be good.  @dave @GIMP Uma parcela pífia de pessoas sabem o que é o outro gimp (não o GNU Image Manipulation Program). Na internet pouquíssimo se encontra sobre de tanto que o software sobrepôs a prática de sadomasoquismo. Não faz sentido um software com quase 30 anos de existência mudar de nome por uma coincidência dessa que menos de 1% do planeta sabe da existência. Thanks for this view. It’s pretty rude to reply in a different language, but hey that’s what Google Translate is for. In the wider world beyond the Linux and tech sphere, few people know the software name and *do* wonder what the heck?! when they encounter it. I’ve seen this happen with family members and friends. It’s not a bad thing to change things like this, but I’m sure the project has heard it all before @phenrypereira @GIMP also I think you be missing some context of the use of the word in different English speaking localities: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/gimp It’s the use as a slur on disabled people, that makes it an odd name to explain to folks new to Linux and open source software.  @mausmalone Putting a downer on good work done by volunteers isn't in the spirit of this platform and is not welcome. @nigelharpur @GIMP That's great! What has your printing workflow been until now? I've been working on transitioning to FOSS software at one of my jobs and the fine art printing aspect has been the most challenging so far... @flowti @GIMP the cover artwork is provided as either as hand drawn/painted or as photo files so sometimes scanned into gimp directly. I use the text tool/layers in gimp for the titles, blurb etc so usually can do everything just with gimp. One CD cover needed a lot of ongoing (frequently edited) vector work so inkscape was involved. I end up with a multi layer master as per the printer's template and then the 'fun with colour spaces' begins 🤔😳. The FOSS solution has been Krita to date but... 🤞🤞 @flowti @GIMP Krita is, on my machine at least, rather sluggish and tbh I know gimp so well now I am not keen on another learning curve.  @GIMP This is the oldest FOSS i know, and i didn't knew it was back when i first started using it, now i am more than happy and excited foe the 3.0 |
@GIMP Will „heal selection“ again be a part of it? Please, please, please?
