This is a simple script to invert the brightness of only the dark sections of a picture, without changing the colour. You can change the threshold for the script, so that it creates a brighter picture, or one that isn't as bright. The effect is applied on a separate layer above the active one, so you can delete it or apply a layer mask to it if you want.

This script takes a picture, create a white background, and off-center the foreground on it. Then it add a dropped shadow.

Example:

Updated 2011/11/28: I've modified the script to have it work without any error messages with at least Gimp 2.7.4

Creates a picture which is a duplication of the current picture upscaled and blured as background,
and the current picture itself with a border and shadow around it as foreground

This Shadow&Highlight script does a decent job of lightening shadows and/or darken highlights in photographs. The UI gives you five control sliders. Two for control of the Shadow and Highlight amount (opacity), two for the tonal width of each contrast mask layer (using gamma), and one for the blur radius of the masks. Plus the option to flatten visible layers when done.  read more »
