RSS Lightsaber (LSE) v0.9

spoilt_exile — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:26:13 +0100

RSS Lightsaber (or LSE) is a simple script for creating lightsaber effect in picture. The script base on my own algorithm.
Features:

Fast script's execution.
Independent setting for blur size of the lightsaber's core and glow around saber.
Some features to provide correct effects on extra large photos (above 20 Mp).

The basic documentation is inside archive. Enjoy!
Next release (v1.0 with new documentation and lessons) in December 2009.

Quadrupole

theilr — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 05:26:01 +0100

Takes an image, makes four 1/4 scale copies, and reflects them about vertical and horizontal axes to achieve a four-fold symmetry.

Note: As well as being atrociously inefficient (eg, by scaling the same image four times, instead of making copies after the first scaling), this code does substantially less than the "Small Tiles" dialog (which comes standard in Gimp in /Filters/Map)

Cheap HDR

theilr — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 05:05:32 +0100

Provides a kind of poor-man's HDR (high dynamic range). It doesn't actually increase the dynamic range; in fact, it decreases it, overall, but in a way that maintains local contrast. But this gives you some headroom to increase the contrast of the image overall, thus enhancing the local contrast.

Jagged Border

theilr — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 04:48:18 +0100

Creates a white (or black) border around an image that merges in with the image so that on a larger white (or black) background, the image appears to have a ragged border. This is similar to the Gimp's Fuzzy Border, but it adapts its jaggedness to the image. (Also unlike Fuzzy Border, it is deterministic, it does not depend on random number seeds.)

Some examples of what I mean by a jagged border that "adapts" to the image, which also illustrate the difference between a white and black border (it's not just the color), are shown in this triplet of images:

Draw arrow

B-Ranger — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:47:35 +0100

Update [11/15/2009] : Added fixed brush width and double headed error, removed bug 1) one-point-paths, 2) horizontal paths
Update [11/16/2009] : Fixed image type restriction string
Update [11/19/2009] : Added feature for absolute wing length, fixed handling gray-scale images

This plugin enables GIMP to draw an arbitrary arrow into an image or a new layer. The plugin has reasonable default values for every paramtere but is freely adjustable to ones needs. Parameters are:

wing length and line width freely adjustable (relative & absolute)
angle between arrow tail and wing
optional draw arrow in new layer
optional filled or not filled head
optional notch in arrow head
optional delete used path
optional draw double headed arrow

Usage:
Create a path (usually <B>) with the head of the arrow (first anchor point) and the end of the tail (second anchor point). Then call the script which adds itself to the "Tools" menu (I use <AltGr+P> as the shortcut as "Pfeil" is the german word for arrow).

ToDo:

Write documentation (any one can help me with that and knows how to?)
Open for suggestions
Enable a more angularly arrow

Render Technological Image

FyerEgg — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 17:15:52 +0100

Based on the set edge, pixel ammount, color and brightness, this script-fu generates a layer that looks techno.

Here is an example of what it makes...

You can find it when you create the image window...

Texture Generator (for 3d artist - I hope!)

krypt — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 16:28:22 +0200

The purpose of this script is to create textures for floors or walls without having a repetition, sometimes annoying.

Spaced V-Guides

jboulais — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:55:12 +0200

This script creates a series of V-Guides in the image at the user defined spacing. The user also specifies if the guides should start from the left, center, or right side of the image.
