Hello everyone, I would like to order a foil balloon with a wedding photo from the 50s printed on it. As you can imagine the resolution of the photo isn't great. Do you have any advice in what way I could edit the photo to improve the result? Alternatively if there is a better forum to ask this please point me there. Thanks a lot! submitted by /u/Aika0009 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

My previous laptop seems to have become a brick after an update that I can only assume was interrupted. It was an older laptop and I was considering replacing it, this is just sooner than expected. Does anyone here have advice for a laptop that would be primarily for photo manipulation projects via Gimp? I'm operating on a limited budget, but I'm open to suggestions. The attached image is my current consideration. The website coupons brought the price closer to $600, but I can consider a larger budget. It just means I'll be without a laptop for longer than I'd prefer. I appreciate any in ..read more

I have googled this for a few days now, I have found templates for making magic the gathering cards, 1 per print, playing cards (1 per print) plugins that make tons of cards using comma seperated values, and print them front and back. I have found so many greeting card templates. But, I have no idea how to find what I am after or if it exists lol. All I want is to be able to make an A4 sheet of paper with playing card sized images on it to be able to cut out. Ideally a plugin that means I can jusst point at a folder of images and have them resized and then added to the a4 automatically, but I ..read more

Hi everyone, I've gotten into the habit of removing white/bright backgrounds from drawn images to black backgrounds for on my AMOLED phone. I'm still somewhat new to GIMP so I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing an obvious tool/trick and had some questions regarding different tools. My main method is to use the pathing tool to draw around the parts of the image I want to turn transparent on the first layer and then use a second layer that's all black under the first layer for the background. I attached an album showing how different tools usually leave the background for me. (1st is original ..read more
