Hi! Today, in this post, I'm going to answer some questions about GIMP.
1- What's gimp?
GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed program for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring.
2- How can you get Gimp and use it in your computer, at home?
GIMP exists for many different computing platforms, including Linux, Windows and Mac. The current stable versions are 2.6.x and this tutorial will not be fully correct if you are using an older version than 2.6.0.
Here you have the link if you want install it in your computer:
- Linux downloads can be found here: http://www.gimp.org/downloads/
- Windows installers here: http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/
Photocomix has made a convenient Python-support install package [here], which adds support for the many filters and additions written in Python. Read the install instructions before asking about it. - Mac downloads here: http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/
3- Make a list of windows in Gimp.
- the main lock window formally called empty image window
- an assorment of selection - making tools
- a menu of selections operations
- tool box
4- Make a list of words related with digital image.
- Grid
- Pixels
- Printing
- Resolution
- Size
- Pixel per inch
- Camera
- Resolution value
- TIFF or JPEG file
- layers
- selecton mask
- set of channels
- set of pathys
- windows
- program
- tool box
- functions
- settings
- tool
- brushes
- patterns
- gradients
- the main dock window
- menu.
6- Why do we use layers?
We use layers because you can draw on each paper, but still see the content of the other sheets through the transparent areas. You can also move one sheet in relation to the others.
7- Is it important to make a selection, when using Gimp?
It is important because often when modify an image, you only want a part of the image to be affected. The “selection” mechanism makes this possible. Each image has its own selection, which you normally see as a moving dashed line separating the selected parts from the unselected parts (the so-called “marching ants” ).
8-What can you find out in Internet about me? (gimp logo)
Wilber is the official GIMP mascot. Wilber has relevance outside of GIMP as a racer in SuperTuxKart and was displayed on the Bibliothèque nationale de France (National Library of France) as part of Project Blinkenlights.
Wilber was created at some time before 25 September 1997 by Tuomas Kuosmanen (tigert) and has since received additional accessories and a construction kit to ease the process.
