G'MIC : GREYC's Magic for Image Computing
January 13, 2009 - 14:16 — dtschump
The G'MIC plug-in for GIMP proposes a set of various filters to apply on your images, including artistic effects, image denoising and enhancement algorithms, 3D renderers, etc.. It is a quite large plug-in, integrating a lot of different effects.
This plug-in is able to :
- Propose an image preview window for each available filter.
- Manage multi-layers inputs and outputs. G'MIC defines filters to compose layers or create animations from static images.
- Update his list of filter definitions from the Internet, so it is able to improve itself over time.
- Allow any user to add its own custom filters in it, written in the G'MIC language interpreted by the internal image processing engine.
G'MIC has been written by the author of GREYCstoration, a GIMP plug-in dedicated to image denoising and smoothing. All former GREYCstoration algorithms have been improved and integrated into G'MIC.
Latest version of G'MIC is numbered 1.5.5.0 :
- Download G'MIC for Windows 32 bits
- Download G'MIC for Linux 32 bits.
- Download G'MIC for Linux 64 bits.
- Download G'MIC for Mac Intel 32 bits (Leopard or Snow Leopard).
A quite complete overview of available image effects can be seen on the official G'MIC plug-in page.

It doesn't download data from the Internet automatically.
It's only when you press the 'Refresh' button, with the 'Internet update' toggle button checked that it connects to the G'MIC server.
This is only an input request, no output data are send to the server.
(you can check the source to be sure :) )
1.3.5.1 update
There is now the 1.3.5.1 version of the G'MIC package available.
G-Mic isn't updating
I clicked the link above and cleared my hard drive of the older version (including recycle bin) and its not updating to the newest G-Mic. Showing as 1.3.4.1.
I had to go to the flickr site to get the updated version. As of last night, the link at the top of this post hadn't been updated.

You will need to go the the Sourceforge site and re-download G'MIC and replace those files Mahvin. No automatic way of updating the plugin itself. :)
All I am saying is
The links at Sourceforge (listed at the top of this post), were not the providing the correct updated files (possibly hadn't been updated at the time after David posted it?). They were the older 1.4.3.1 files.
I had to go to the flickr G'MIC site to get the correct link to the updated Sourceforge links.

Thanks David. Downloaded the pre-release yesterday, but saw on the flikr thread that you were going update it again so I just downloaded and installed it. Still a happy camper. :)
G'MIC 1.3.5.0 released
I'm really pleased to announce the release of the final 1.3.5.0 version of the G'MIC package.
Hope you'll enjoy it !
How to install on Mac OS X 10.5.8
Hi! I'm using Mac OS X and I'm really, really interested in adding G'MIC to my GIMP plug-ins 'coz I think it's really cool. However, after a couple of hours of figuring things out, I really couldn't find it in my filters list. i wonder what went wrong. Basing on the thread here, I made a parent folder on my desktop with the zip file in it and i extracted it right there and I came up with a unix executable file. Then I opened GIMP, then went to Edit - Preferences - Folders - Plug-ins, then I clicked the white paper icon at the upper left of the window, then went to my desktop, clicked the G'MIC folder and hit ok. I restarted GIMP but g'mic is not in my filters list still. I would be very happy if you could help me out. Thanks!
Release of G'MIC 1.3.4.1
Hi folks,
The 1.3.4.1 version of the G'MIC package has been released.
Nothing really exciting here, mainly bug corrections and some new features (but not yet included as usable filters in the GIMP plug-in), as the watershed image transform (will be probably used soon to get a 'mosaic' filter in G'MIC).
David.
G'MIC is great
I know of no other filter sets, plugins, etc that beat G'MIC.. I'm continually amazed at the different things I've been able to do with it even though I often forget how I did things with it because my age isn't in the low digits anymore. ;)
I studied art years ago and my dad was an old newspaperman and sold artist separated color stuff for years before retiring in the 90's and the techniques I can do with G'MIC would have taken me hours, days or even weeks, sometimes MONTHS to do only a very few short years ago. My dad is completely and utterly floored by it.
My dad thought artist separated color was cutting edge until the computer monitor and mouse came along making those messy old techniques all but completely archaic and outdated and I spent years learning how to do things with pen and paper, ink and brushes that I now do with mouse and monitor in mere minutes.
Thanks....I think ;)
