HI Folks;

I notice that the GIMP site now offers a downloadable extension pack for GIMP 2.8 (windows) loaded with some very useable plug-ins.

I tried to install it to GIMP Portable with no luck. Tried to trick the installer by loading GIMP on my PC then switching it out with GIMP Portable. It installed, but would not show up when I put GIMP Portable back on my memory stick.

Has anyone the knowhow or inclination to convert the plug-ins in the Windows extension pack so they will run with GIMP Portable?

Cheers

I've had several occurrences of the same problem logging into my work PC

Error when logging in "Unable to load ZENautil.dll"

Only re-imaging the PC seemed to fix the problem and then it would recur.

We eventually traced it to GIMP Portable. There is an article here:

I configured Gimp to not keep a recent file list but still recent files show up.
It seems like only saved files are in the recent files list.
Is this an issue with Gimp or is this an issue with the portable version of Gimp?

Thanks,

Jasper

Since I prefer not to use the single window display so I can open two images side-by-side (like 'before' and 'during/after' editing) I would like to be able to lock the Toolbox and Layers windows together so I can slide them out of the way quickly (small screen). Even better would be one of those '-' thingy buttons that sends the window to the taskbar.

Hi,

can somebody tell me, why this is? I have the .ini-File in the main Gimp portable directory. Once I exit Gimp, all the recent files and file history are gone. They only stay on as long as GIMP is open.

Hello,

My problem :
My Portable Gimp can not load nor save any other file type than xcf. See details below:

• Loading another format than xcf
  - When I do : file -> open -> (change filter to all files) select a file (for example png/jpg): I get a popup message saying "Unknown file type"
  - When I drag and drop a png/jpg file into gimp: nothing happens
• Saving a xcf file into another format
  - When I do : file -> save as -> Select File Type (By Extension) : I only get 2 lines "By Extension" and "GIMP XCF Image"

Gimp 2.8.2 crashes, when using cage transform tool. (A meanwhile known bug.)
So, despite minor shortcommings, in the moment Gimp 2.8.0 is the more stable solution and should eventually be offered direct at the main PortableGimp download page (at least as an alternative option).

In the file open dialog Gimp creates thumbnails for all clicked pictures (at least after click in the right sidebar).

The installed StandardGimp (Win 32, Vista) saves it for future use usually in the userdirectory on harddrive c:

Gimp portabel saves and keeps thumbnails correct separated in its own directory: GIMPPortable\Data\.gimp\.thumbnails\normal

But when closing GimpPortable, all saved thumbnails of the installed StandardGimp (wherever stored) are deleted!
