GIMP 2.4.4 is awesome!

Submitted by Call_me_Tom on February 20, 2008 - 9:22pm

I'm loving this new app, especially with the add-ons(+). I'm a Photoshop & Lightroom guy but using 2.4.4+ in conjunction with FSviewer is awesome. It isn't as intuitive but it is definitely much easier lugging around my external HDD with GIMP installed then dragging my laptop with me everywhere I go; computers are everywhere, Photoshop isn't.

I see plenty of threads requesting new apps or complaints of bugs, I just wanted to say thanks.

GIMP: Installation problems

Submitted by rdbrown on February 11, 2008 - 4:05pm

I have Gimp Portable 2.2.17 installed on my Ativa U3 device, running off of an XPpro system. When I attempt to open a JPG file I am told it is an unknown file type. I do not receive this error with my locally installed copy of 2.2.13. The plug-in folders specified in preferences are "C:\Documents and Settings\user\.gimp-2.2\plug-ins" first and "H:\System\Apps\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins" second. I can see the plug-in files in their folders. JPEG.EXE is among them.

eps/ps mit Gimp bearbeiten

Submitted by tt-web on January 28, 2008 - 5:38am

Hallo,
ich möchte mit meinem gimpportable auch eps/ps dateien bearbeiten. Durch meine latexinstallation (auch portabel Wink ) habe ich ein Verzeichniss, in dem Ghostscript und Ghostview incl. Schriften und dem ganzen Kram vorhanden sind. Für meine Latexumgebung funktioniert auch alles hervorragend, aber wie bringe ich gimpportable bei, diese "installation" zu nutzen?
Im Ordner

Z:\Programme\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\lib\gimp\2.0\environ

habe ich die default.env Datei wie folgt angepasst:

GS_PROG=z:\Programme\latexbackend\gs\gs8.61\bin\gswin32c.exe

Using GIMP in China - Pango-WARNING (recursed)

Submitted by losethegame on December 28, 2007 - 7:39am

I'm trying to use GIMP Portable (in English) on computers with Windows in Chinese. When I try to save a file I get the message:

Pango-WARNING (recursed) **: Couldn't load font "[chinese characters] 9" falling back to "Sans 9" aborting...

After clicking (what I assume is) OK I get a runtime error and GIMP closes down...

GIMP install/uninstall failure

Submitted by JoelH on November 29, 2007 - 8:59pm

I installed GimpPortable in \System\Apps\GimpPortable.
Clicking on GimpPortable.exe launches the program fine.

Used Shortcut Creator to create a shortcut, but clicking the icon returns this message:
"An error occurred while trying to start the selected program."

Tried to "update" the GIMP shortcut, assuming I had made an error in the path.
SC created a second shortcut that also doesn't work.

Tried to uninstall both instances and get the message:
"Uninstall of GIMP.u3p failed."

Thanks,
Joel

GIMPshop

Submitted by chupathingyyy on November 29, 2007 - 8:42am

I know there is GIMP portable, but I was wondering if you guys would mind making a portable version of GIMPshop. I like GIMP, it is a nice image editor, but those 3 separate windows really bug me. So I did some research and found GIMPshop which is basically GIMP put into one single app window (just like photoshop or pixel). Looking forward to you answer. Cheers!!!

GIMP: Splash Screen Removal

Submitted by derwydd on November 21, 2007 - 11:48am

I know this is a talked about before question.

I downloaded the NSIS compiler and plugins. I changed the:

\GIMPPortable\Other\GIMPPortableSource\GimpPortable.ini to have the line ->
DisableSplashScreen=true

I opened and compiled \GIMPPortable\Other\GIMPPortableSource\GimpPortable.nsi

moved GimpPortable.exe to \GIMPPortable\

The splash screen still comes up.

What am I doing wrong?

Sorry for the same question...
