@kekemui @GIMP Thank you, that worked a treat! I like a lot about #GIMP3, but the removal of "Recently Used" in the save/open dialog and that neither G'Mic nor Resynthesizer appear to work in Gimp3 yet, means I need to keep 2.10 for now.

I have G3 as an AppImage so I can switch to it if I need to.

Thanks for this tip!

Hey, any #GIMP users able to help answer a simple question because my brain is malfunctioning?

I'm running #GIMP3, but the G'Mic plugin isn't ready for Linux Mint yet. Unfortunately I already uninstalled GIMP 2.10.

How do I install older versions (or get the 2.10 AppImage)?

I can't see it on GitHub, nor on gitlab.gnome.org.

(I found an old @GIMP AppImage but G'Mic won't run on it so my AppImage must be too old.)

Thanks!

This is my first CR2 RAW photo processed entirely using RawTherapee and GIMP, versions 5 and 3, respectively on macOS.
Minimal processing as I'm just learning the apps. I still have been unsuccessful in connecting between the two apps to automatically pass the photo between so had to go RT>tiff>GIMP.

Thank you to all who enjoyed our April Fool news post - it’s been updated. We DO value contributions of file format support, but they are not our main priority!

In other news, GIMP 3.0.2 for Windows already had 1.6 million downloads in 10 days - and that does not include the Microsoft store.

Do any users of #GIMP on #Linux know how to install the in-development version of the Resynthesizer plugin, called the "resynthesizer3 branch"?

Despite being a Linux user, I've maybe "cloned, built and installed" two things since 2019...so I need instructions-for-dummies.

I'm just missing a couple of the healing functions from Resynthesizer as it was far better at it than I am doing it manually.

Thanks.

#GIMP3 was in development for 7 years, and they somehow managed to put the outline for a text on the inside of the text when using the outline setting of the text tool.

Top text shows what #GIMP developers think an outline should look like. Bottom text shows how an outline actually should look like – manually created by adding a drop shadow filter.

Am I the only one who thinks that this is a crazy oversight?

I'm not normally on Masto at this time, but just had a question.

In #GIMP3 the Lightness/Contrast tool appears to go *much* darker with one adjustment to contrast, compared to #GIMP 2.

I felt in G2, that the slider made smaller, incremental changes (and is easier for me to replicate than using curves because I don't always have steady hands).

Has anyone else noticed contrast being darker?

Is the only answer to use Curves/Levels?

Thanks,

FJ
