What are the limitations of GIMP?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When using Adobe Photo shop for the first time, it is very hard to use and you would need a manual or someone to sit with you as you learn, each different version is totally different so for each different version you will have to relearn how to use Adobe Photo shop. It also costs a lot of money to get, with buying the program and the license that goes with it. Also, like most graphic programs it uses a lot of memory so more memory is needed, which would make the cost go up.

How do you import GIMP photos into iMovie?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

From iMovie's Window menu select Event Library. This will show a pane that includes iPhoto Videos. The videos will need to be in a format that iMovie recognises - MPEG4 or DV file formats, and some .mov formats. Try MPEG Streamclip to convert between formats (See links below). If you want to import still images click on the camera icon, on the right hand side of the iMovie window, which will show your iPhoto library. Any desired items can be dragged into your movie.

How do you install Gimp brushes on a mac?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

try going on google and copy and paste a brush into gimp, then save it ask a brush, then refresh your brush gallery

EDIT- his way fails.

Find a website that has a lot of brushes that you can download

like (brusheezy.com).

Click download, go to your downloaded content area (after it's done downloading) double click on the latest installed brushes..click on extract (you'll see it on the topper corner of the file you just double clicked).. and then choose a file to extract on, (click on "mycomputer"..or if you changed the name of it then just click on that.), then click on gimp 2.6 and then click on brushes and finally click extract again.

You need to close Gimp 2.6 and then re-open it for the brushes to install.

This easy tutorial feature is for Windows users only, i am not sure about Mac users.

Google chrome users:

Download>select file> double click on file> extract file> select "mycomputer" or what ever you named it>click on Gimp 2.6>click on brushes> extract file.

What is the purpose of GIMP?

Where are gimp plugins to remove clothes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sorry, I doubt there is any plug in or filter to accomplish that. Even in depth enhanced formats such as exr (Industrial Light and Magic), what you see is what you get. If you cannot see under the clothes, you do not get under the clothes.

Your only choice is to break out the brush, use the image as a guide, and draw your own, without the clothing.
