Graphics & Pictures Apps Support

At the risk of raising my dork quotient to prodigious heights — I'm not a programmer — I believe I've found a minor oopsy in the PA edition of 2.6.8, specifically the script-fu-compat.init file buried in the scripts folder. (That's the one that "provides some compatibility with scripts that were originally written for use with the older SIOD based Script-Fu plug-in of GIMP.") To cut to the chase, the version that ships with the portable version doesn't work (deprecated scripts produce syntax error messages and crash) while the desktop version does.

hello my friends!!

ive seen some tutorials about the gimp on youtube and some people has a wonderfull black gimp theme!!!

anyone has an idea where to find and how to install???

thanks :))

Since the 268 does not work on my w2k at all, I need to repair one of my copies of 267 since this one does not open any jpg anymore.

Where to download 267? Link?

Fresh download and install of gimp 2.6.8

I run gimp, don't even paint and close it and it is left...like before...

This does work, gegl is removed...seems like this may have been forgotten?

Have downloaded few times the new gimp 268 today, the file looks OK so far.
It does install normal, but when trying to run it, nothing big happends.

Worse , it does interfere with the portable apps plattform somehow, this one appears after an attempt to run gimp 268 only as black square.

This all on w2k, have no XP at this moment here to check it.

i downloaded >GIMP animation maker plug-in file

I right click on a brush and try to make an eliptical... but the following error comes up
Error while executing script-fu-make-brush-elliptical:

Error: Procedure execution of file-gbr-save failed:
Could not open 'F:\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\Data\settings/brushes/e20x20.gbr' for writing: No such file or directory

Can someone fix that? It's no fun not to have a feature because gimp is looking in the wrong place and also, forward slashes wont help

Hi,

I suggest you guys to upgrade GIPM Portable to the 2.8 version (if possible), because there's a major change: a single-window interface.

Thanks in advance,

GIMP crashed and created some sort of virus on my USB!
at first the picture got wiped then the picture got deleted, then all the other pictures got wiped and then deleted. then the folder turned into a corupt file!

why has this happened? it has never happened before.

PortableGIMP is unusable for me as it won't open any other file format other than .xcf and I get an "unknow image format" error on .PNGs, .JPGs, etc.

This is a known issue with GIMP (see references below), but I've never experienced it with PortableGIMP until now. I haven't used PortableGIMP since at least last summer so this bug was introduced since then.
