layers-slices - A slicing tool based on layers instead of guidelines

robert.hendrickx — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 11:02:01 +0200

This script is meant to cut an image is smaller pieces and save these images automatically based on the size and names of specific layers, images to be used in web layouts.

Other options I found are based on guidelines. This approach has 2 drawbacks for me :

Image used for web layout are not always a pure table. The image you needfor the banner has not the same width than the one you need for the side block, and there are "cells" of that table that you don't need
It's saved with an autogenerated name

If I'm wrong with this analysis, tell me... this script is perhaps a bad duplicate of some existing plugin I don't know about...

The idea here is to create a layer for each slice you need. This layer has 2 important characteristics :

It's name - which must be "SLICE-xxx" (case insensitive), where xxx is the name of the image file to create, including the extension (.jpg or .png supported)
It's size - no matter what is on the layer,oly it's size matter

For each of these "SLICE-*" layer, the image will be flatten (without the "SLICE-*" layers themselves), cropped to the layer's size and saved in the directory specified in the requested parameters. For .jpg images, the compression quality is requested in the parameters.

This script is my first scheme script, and has to be considered beta quality at most...

Website Window Creator Script

This script creates a new image with a window useful for web design.

To install this script, copy it to your scripts folder, then restart Gimp. If you don't know where your scripts folder is, then go to Edit > Preferences > Folders > Scripts.

To run this script, select File > Create > Website Window.

Feedback is appreciated, and I will consider any changes that you request.

This is rather old stuff, I was looking for an easy way to create html templates in an easy but open source kind of way. It is a perl-fu plugin for Gimp which allows you to draw your template as a multi-layered image, then automatically export it to html + individual png files. It was originally written for Gimp v.1, but it seems to work fine with Gimp v.2

# AUTHOR: Michael K. Nacos
# LICENSE: GPL (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html)
# DESCRIPTION: perl-fu plugin for gimp which converts a multi-layered
# image to an html template + corresponding png images
# DEPENDENCIES: you need gimp, perl (doh!) and the Gimp::Perl module
# INSTALL: satisfy the above, then place script in ~/.gimp plug-ins dir
# USAGE: start by creating a new image (e.g. 1024x76 and adding all
# individual decorative elements in individual transparent gimp layers
# each layer will be converted to a separate png file with the same
# name as the gimp layer, size cropped to a minimum
# an appropriate html file with individual div blocks and css positioning
# will be automatically created
# KNOWN BUGS: you have to save at least once the layered file (.xcf)
# before application of this script. images are deposited in the dir
# you select but html file is deposited in the directory gimp runs in
# (this is not a problem if you cd to the directory you want before running
# gimp from the command line. in gimp 2 you may not undo the flatten
# operation after this script completes.
# DISCLAIMER: this is an old file. it works for me! please don’t flame.

Relative color remap

This plug-in changes colors in an image based on the HSV difference between two colors. This is particularly useful for applying color themes to existing images.
It avoids burning out high saturation and value at the expense of compression them somewhat when the difference goes towards higher saturation and value.
Current bugs/missing features include:
Undo does not work.
It can't be used on indexed images, even though it would frequently have enough colors.
It's slooow. Since it looks at only one pixel at a time, it should use some "pixel-iterator" that goes through the tiles in an optimal manner.
Selection only works in binary.
Grayscale support is untested and probably broken.
There is no preview.
Prevention of highlight burnout should be optional.

btn4ws

Jan Dittberner — Tue, 01 Jan 2008 19:02:29 +0100

btn4ws generates a series of buttons for use on websites. The plugin generates the buttons for 3 different states (active, inactive, pressed) and can apply different effects (supernova, patterns, shadows) onto the buttons. btn4ws can also create valid XHTML, CSS and JavaScript output for using the buttons. btn4ws is a python based plugin for GIMP 2.x (tested with GIMP 2.4.3)

The plugin requires GTK+ >= 2.6 and PyGTK >= 2.10
The plugin doesn't use gimpfu but has a custom GtkAssistant based GUI, this makes the plugin a good example to create non gimpfu python plugins
The current version can be downloaded at http://www.dittberner.info/projects/btn4ws/wiki/Downloads
The project page of the new python based version is http://www.dittberner.info/projects/btn4ws
The development subversion repository is available at http://www.dittberner.info/projectsvn/btn4ws

There is an older perl-fu based version of the plugin for GIMP 1.x available. It can be downloaded at http://www.dittberner.info/en/node/28
