Hello everyone. Happy April 6, 2009. I’m glad to tell you guy that I have some experimentation cooking here. This post is a video tutorial, no audio for now (crap me!), to which I call Let the GIMP do it. This is my very first attempt to make a video tutorial for the GIMP so please bear with me if you notice some noobness. Hehehe. But I really hope you’ll find this helpful and useful for your daily image editing tasks.
Today we are going to learn how to boost productivity when dealing with basic image editing operations on multiple images such as simple sharpening, resizing, renaming, etc… So I’d like to introduce you with a very useful GIMP filter called David’s Batch Processor.

Hello GIMP community. Welcome back. No long post for now. But I’m going to share a link that’s worth your time reading. If you are interested to know more about how GIMP will be used by Graphics Professionals and for the would be people that’s planning to use GIMP for their graphic production needs, head over to Dave Girard’s post attechnica.com entitled Suite freedom: a review of GIMP 2.6.4.
Ars brings you a massive, in-depth review of one of the most popular cross-platform photo editing programs available. And, somewhat ironically for an application that shares a name with the chained-up guy from Pulp Fiction, it’s completely free. >>
I enjoyed reading the article for it’s kind of transparent in many ways. David did a comparisons of what GIMP can do, what it can’t and what workarounds you can apply. As I browse through the pages I was informed of sad truths that most of have, GIMP enthusiasts, probably knew. At least for the moments. Hey, enough is enough here, go check out the David’s review and enjoy!

Hello GIMP Community. As the Heart’s Day is fast approaching, I’ve made another simple free desktop wallpaper for you to use. I name this as It’s February Fourteen, A Valentine Wallpaper. Made this with GIMP accompanied with GIMP Brushes: Hearts for the heart shapes and the use of URW Gothic L for the type texture effect.

Are you finding a way to get around with GIMP? Do you consider yourself a noob with the application? Great news. I found a Flickr group called GIMP Beginners. Kind of a new kid in town to help everyone kick started with GIMP. Hahay! Another great example the power of Open Source community. Thumbs up to Erica Marshall (A Windows Systems Administrator by day and a photographer her on my spare time …. ) for creating GIMP Beginners.
From Flickr GIMP Beginners group.
Erica_Marshall (a group admin) says:
28 Jan 09 – This group was created to help photographers who are new to Gimp (or even to image editing in general). There are a few lessons posted in the “Discussion” section. If you have other questions you can post them there as well.
NEW RULE! The group pool should be a place for learning as well, so entries are now moderated. All images added to our group pool must have a description of how you used Gimp to create it. Images without such a description will be denied.
Thanks for joining!

Yes. This is quite a surprise for me. The interest with GIMP is getting higher and “instant?”. As seen on the stats above, dated January 31, 2009, Ang Pilipino GIMP got 7,745 views on the post 2008’s Best GIMP Tutorial Picks. Good news for the GIMP & the community. And to the GIMP enthusiasts, groups, & tutorial creators inspire & guide us more with your high quality GIMP tutorials.
