This plugin will simulate a "molten material" effect for the given shape. To make this plugin work, draw some random blobs onto the canvas and start the "Molten Material" plugin from within Filters->Artistic.

These links will show you further examples of the Molten Material plugin:

I noticed a new version of
I noticed a new version of Python was available (I have Win Vista by the way). It says that it is cot compatible with 2.x. Will I need an earlier version of Python to run this script?
Where do I put it?
Forgive me if I sound clueless, but what foulder do I put this in?
It dosn't work when I put it in scripts or plug-ins so where else do I put it?
Plugin
Under the gimp directory there will be a /plug-ins directory. Put it there. If you are using Linux, you will also need to do chmod 755 on the file.
PLUGIN
You put the plugin in C:\Documents and Settings\user\.gimp-2.6\Plug-ins I think...
Still nothing.
I’ve already said that it doesn’t work when I put it in the plug-ins directory.
Plug-ins are in the form of .exe files, but this is .py. Where do those go?

Still Nothing
Still nothing because as i may see in my magic crystal ball you use Windows XP or Vista.
then you have no Python support for Gimp out of the box,
or you take the disturbance of add it (and that is more complex then click on a installer )or you better forgot python plugin
in the first case this http://www.registry.gimp.org/node/3916 will help to make a bit easier.
PS to hope to get a reply i suggest next time in the very first line to indicate your OS and the number of your gimp (i.e Gimp-0.5 ,Gimp-2.0, Gimp.2.6 ....)
Likely a common wetware issue;
SCM files on a windows install go in,
\share\gimp\2.0\scripts
NOT,
\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins
No idea about linux because I haven't booted my linux partition in about a year.
The directory structure is
The directory structure is effectively the same, only the prefixes are different - there is no /usr/[bin|lib|share] concept on Windows (unfortunately, think about all the problems that could be avoided if developers would be forced to pay attention to installed libs...).
The common prefix on Windows is the directory where GIMP has been installed, onwards from there it's the same structure.
download?
ho do you download it?
is it the .py file?
if so how is it turned into a plugin?
Very nice!
Very easy to use, and playing with the alpha over different images produces some amazing effects! Thank you!

Python support for Gimo 2.6?
Sry for my English, I'm German.
I use ubuntu. Where can I find the "Python support" for Gimp 2.6? I can't run this nice Molten Metarial script.
Python support for Gimo 2.6
Is already there out of the box
only you have to make the script executable...just question of permission
Ahh.. the premission wasn't
Ahh..
the premission wasn't my problem. I couldn't found the plugin in a register, so I had to edit the .py from "/Artistic/Render/_Molten Material..." to "/Filters/Render/_Molten Material..."
I'm not sure why; the reason could be that I use the German version of gimp... but now it runs!
Sry i mean
Sry i mean "/Filters/Artistic/_Molten Material..." to "/Filters/Render/_Molten Material..."
