Scripts that work in GIMP-2.6.3


As the GIMP advances its codebase, many scripts become deprecated and/or no longer work. They pop up errors or do not run at all -- their code needs to be updated to keep up with the GIMP. Since I "need" the plug-ins, I often update the scripts to keep working.

Here's some history of and progress on this project.
And of course I am more than willing to take a peek at other's work...
So far I've gotten help and code contributions from:

NOTE: Screenshot may not show all the latest plugin additions.

Latest update includes:


water-paint-effect.scm
added "Flatten Image when complete" option to dialog. Had previously merged the "subtracted" layer automatically, now you can leave on a separate layer to adjust effect, if desired. On Jan. 2, 2009 I edited again to name the Watercolor layer -- just to ease editing for those who change the layer opacity.

About:
------------------------------------------------------------
GIMP-2.6 scripts is a fixed/hacked collection of scripts for 
use in the new GIMP. Originally for 2.4, but things continue 
to evolve and break scripts... so on I go. 

If a script I wrote or played with gives me errors in use, I 
get them running and include them in the scripts package. 
I am not the original author for most of these scripts, but 
I believe they all let you redistribute (GPL-like).

So use them, pass them around or make them better.
It's all good.

Enjoy.

Project History


I started doing this just after the release of GIMP-2.4 and I think I keep pace pretty well, sort of out of necessity because I use the GIMP and many of the scripts every day. (I do wpclipart.com)

I currently run GIMP-2.6.3 on Absolute Linux. I occasionally check the scripts on Windows -- but I really rely upon feedback from Windows users if anything is amiss. So do not hesitate to email me at psherman2001@gmail.com if you spot an error or have some suggestion.

The gimpfx-foundry project has built on my first package, made improvements to some and added others . . .  but I was put off a bit by their naming convention, the use of a separate menu item for the scripts, and the fact that they emailed me about their project, asking if I wanted to help out, several weeks after I made updated scripts available on this site. Granted, they did a lot of work on their own, too, but I felt a little miffed. Perhaps unjustly...

In my free time I have made some batch scripts in Python which I will soon make available separately, and I have also been asked to impliment a preview for some scripts. I'm hacking this out and have one posted on this site -- but it is written in Python and I am not sure how happy with the functionality folks who have tried it have been -- any feedback would be appreciated. For the regular SCRIPT-FUs (non-Python), I do not believe a preview window is possible.
