Absolutely brilliant - I'm a back end dev moving towards full-stack - so I'm in the process of getting my head around front end design, I've completed a ton of courses and watched countless videos and this is one of the best presented and understandable videos that I've seen, instantly subscribed and looking forward to checking out the rest of your content. Thank you and have a great day.
You should work on developing GIMP in your spare time if you don't already. GIMP can use more devs. Even if you can only give a couple hours a month - any help is much appreciated.
So helpful. I trained on Photoshop years ago and this brought back some of the things that I had forgotten over the years. Good to know I'm not really starting over with GIMP now that I need a way to correct old photos for genealogy. I feel more comfortable already.
I've used gimp in the past but never for photography. I learned so much from watching this video. You are so easy to follow and understand, you have everything so well prepared that you your presentation is seamless. I can not thank you enough.
7:29 The "System" theme is the GTK theme. When you apply a different theme on GTK, Gimp will follow that. It applies mostly to Linux users who use a GTK-based desktop environment and/or GTK-based programs. You can install a custom GTK theme and the whole system (including Gimp) looks consistent.
Thank you SO much for this. I've been using GIMP for years just on my own, and it's time that I actually sit down and learn the best way(s) to do everything! Unfortunately, I think I'm gonna have to upgrade my version so I can follow along more easily, but no pain, no gain, I guess! Really looking forward to exploring more of your tutorials. You are thorough, easy to follow along with, and patient.
20:54 Worth noting that, if you do too many manipulations to the image, the histogram takes on that characteristic “comb” appearance that indicates banding. It helps to start with raw images that have more than 8 bits per pixel component, to give you more dynamic range to play around. GIMP integrates GEGL technology, which means its effects and filters fully support pixels with components that are 16 bits or even 32 bits deep. Photoshop has limited support for 16-bit pixel components, and none at all for 32 bits.
Very nice! TONS of information! Grampa just wants to crop an image to 4 x 6 and print the picture. Having used lots of MS photo programs this was easy and intuitive. Now using Linux Mint. How do you crop an image 4x6 in GIMP - fast and easy. Second tutorial: Fix red eye and QUICKLY enhance with brightness and contrast - if needed. Then Gramma and Grampa can quickly fix some pictures to save and print. Gramma and Grampa do not want to become professional photographers, at least not just yet. Does such a basic GIMP tutorial exist anywhere on the internet? This is the BASIC stuff non-Geeks need to know. A quick project - not a career education.
Prepare images for print: czcams.com/video/8UqhI_dtKBc/video.html As for cropping, just use the crop tool (shift+c). I have more info on the crop tool on DMD Premium and in my Masterclass.
Great tutorial, and I know you only had time to highlight the main tools and functionality of GIMP, but obviously you have other tutorials that go into greater detail for each. I have tried reading GIMP's own online Help guide, but nothing quite beats a CZcams gig like yours. Thanks for making things easier :)
Just wanted to see if I was ready to leave PSD but the fact that there are no adjustment layers is a real no-go... Thanks anyway for your nicely explained video.
I'm not sure if Gimp is for me. Is there a way to overlap images, say for instance, like 'photoshop' an image of someone's face on top of a cartoon image or something?
I need some help. I just started using GIMP. I'm creating images for a pitch deck. I have about 11 layers going on, as I'm creating a mock film poster. I started to notice, yellow-ish lines, appearing in the project. They are clearly from where I have taken a photo, dropped it into Gimp (a layer) and created a path around an object (like an actress), shrunk them down to place them in the image to create the look I am after. It looks as though the initial outline (prior to shrinking the image) still remains, in faded form in the project. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? CAN ANYONE HELP ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO REMOVE THEM? As they are clearly ruining the overall image I am building. Thank you! Simon
Why is my eyedropper not selecting the average color? The color picker window shows it, but it doesn't change the background color, it doesn't take the color I select for my color match.
Is it possible to set the open image dialog to display thumbnails by default instead of filenames, I find it a pain to click through filenames looking at the preview to see if its the image I wanted to load.
Hi Michael. Thanks for the Tutorial. On point number 2, one thing that frustrates me is that my images are not always named descriptively so the first thing I looked for was how to get a thumbnail view instead of a list view. Is this at all possible?
I have all the tools on left , but nothing underneath, trying to remove background, lasso tool, add alpha channel, select invert, delete ,select none ,now to create new layer, there is nothing on left? no white box ??Please help
Hi, i have a question, i remember with older gimp versions i could add an objet (crop) cut it from one image and past it to another image (the background image) and then i could erase the object's contours (by simply using the eraser) so i could see the background image exemple: i cut an airplane image from a gray sky background and past it to an image that has a nice blue sky background and then erase the airplane's grey sky color around it. i cant find out how to do it with lates 2.10.20 version. ..
Just make sure the layer has an alpha channel (right click on the layer and go to "Add Alpha Channel"). You could also use a layer mask to achieve the same effect. Should work the same though in GIMP 2.10.
nooooo my GIMP doesnt look like that. mine has no brush or tool options anywhere....i can only add effects and filters pretty much. how do I get this version? I downloaded it straight from their site >.>
Hello pal, how use gimp as blackboard ( alternative to awwboard-app, zoom-whiteboard, jamboard, ziteboard, xournal++). Which software is better as blackboard, GIMP or Inscape?
Ok just downloaded it. First impression is that this is a pain to use. There isn't really anything I like about it so far. Simple things like zooming in and out is a pain in the butt. My work flow will be slow and fatiguing. Most programs these days are poorly designed though.
I just downloaded GIMP, and still, you can't use it because the Desktop icon doesn't exist and who knows where the executable program is. Ok, I am not a total 'tard, I got it running. Now I can scan my old photo prints into GIMP, but only one photo at a time, whereas my old PaintShop Pro software from 20 years ago will let my modern day scanner do multiple scans in one shot. Simple put, I can fit 5 photos on my scanner and the scanner will automatically crop and scan each photo, and then import all of them into PaintShop Pro in one shot, not with gimp. I can do it with Adobe Software, but I am not willing to rent software on a monthly basis that I will probably use twice a year.
Please Davies, can you help me with how to remove background image with furr. I have been making lot of mistake and I don't know what to do 🥺😟. Please help me
Hi Michael, I noticed that on the top left of your image window you have the photo you opened and the blank project. Mine used to be that way but somehow they are now at the bottom left. I think it happened with the last update but since I’m bouncing between different programs and operating systems that is a guesstimate. I’ve looked through the settings but have not been Abel to see anything about them. Tried to just drag and drop as well like the dock able tools still no luck. What the heck did I click on ? Lol. Thanks for the tutorials, they’ve been a great help.. also signed up as premium member on your site and have a question but I’ll head there now and see if it’s straightened out.. thanks again
I'm not a fan of your free hand movement. You are doing great with them once they are anchored to mouse and keyboard though. Now I'm contemplating whether I just subscribed because of the former or the latter.
For a complete noob this was really hard to listen to. Just sticking with some basic techniques would have been great to start with, but instead there was a flood of information about tools I wouldn't use or don't even understand how I need them yet. Showing by example and explaining while you did it would have been great.
Hey Jack - I do apologize if you find the pace a bit fast, but I want to remind you that you can set a lower playback speed using the gear icon in the lower right corner of the CZcams player.
"Don't ever pay for Gimp" I feel that this gives a bad and misleading impression. "Whilst Gimp is completely free I encourage you to donate..." and show the donation page is, I feel, more aware .
I really appreciate this but lets face it, this is NOT a program for beginners, neither is Photoshop they are both awful! sure they're great to manipulate images but only if you're tech savvy, it is a lie that is usable by everyone, this is for beginners and you literally have to take a course to draw a square or a circle, it will take you a week to find out how to make a simple auto shape on a white canvas, get real, is painful to teach people that doesn't have the background, or are actually beginners at this, which is why your video is amazing, and your patience is impressive, but this is NOT for beginners, you're barely covering how to open the program in 26 minutes. Vector software like Paint for example will take 5 seconds to everybody with or without background because those are for beginners. The painting tools in Gimp and Photoshop are impossible! and the fact that you have to select EACH freaking feature makes it even more annoying, want to check something for beginners? try photodraw is like paint that makes layers by itself, everything is graphic and is basically copy paste, click drag for everything, in here to resize a photo you need to take a course, because you cant just click and the photo and drag it to resize it, you have to select the resizing tool and then input a value or figure out how to be able to finally click and drag, to draw a star auto-shape, keep googling take a course, to make an empty square or a square edge keep googling because that's another course and if you want the solid shape with 2 or more colors, you guessed it, another course... This is not for beginners, so if you're expecting to learn this is 1 minute or less use simpler software, even for us who have to work with it everyday for years since it released, we still need to figure and find out some of the features, just get ready to spend a lot of time in training.

i remember with older gimp versions i could add an objet (crop) cut it from one image and past it to another image (the background image)

Hello pal, how use gimp as blackboard ( alternative to awwboard-app, zoom-whiteboard, jamboard, ziteboard, xournal++).
Which software is better as blackboard, GIMP or Inscape?
Inkscape is for vector graphics and totally is not fitted for this kind of job. It's like trying to use cubes as wheels in car.
Just uploaded GIMP 2.10.22 and it wont recognize any files I try to open. Any suggestions?
The plants are pretty funny.
Ok just downloaded it. First impression is that this is a pain to use. There isn't really anything I like about it so far. Simple things like zooming in and out is a pain in the butt. My work flow will be slow and fatiguing. Most programs these days are poorly designed though.
Ctrl+mouse wheel to zoom in and out, space bar acts like the hand tool
your videos have the longest ads than any other video on yt
They should be skippable. That's CZcams's department and also dependent on your personal search history, etc. I don't control that aspect.
How do you highlight and change the colour of a text I want o write on image?
You can learn about the text tool in-depth here: czcams.com/video/DVwzplbCiv8/video.html
Does anyone know if GIMP has a Quick Select option similar to Photoshop?
yes, it's the 'U' shortcut on your keyboard
I just downloaded GIMP, and still, you can't use it because the Desktop icon doesn't exist and who knows where the executable program is.
