It is really interesting to see how many of the PS tutorial can be used in GIMP when you know how the software works more than just knowing which filters to run. I learn about this from a PS tutorial by Chris Marquardt from Tips form the Top Floor podcast. Romeroesque blue-faced Zombies is only a mouse-click away! If you choose a neutral-luminance color (so the average of all three channels is 128), you'll only tint. "Soft Light" seems to work exactly the same as "Overlay" not sure what difference there's supposed to be.Ī tip: if you paint with color you can tint the area, not just darken or brighten it, without affecting the luminance detail. I hope you don't mind if I use some of those teachings in the book. Your videos have inspired me to write a book. Now there is hardly a photo I work on that doesn't have layers.īTW Even after using GIMP for years I have learnt quite a bit from your video tutorials, even the first episode. Tuxcomputers Well it has happened to all of us, I was using GIMP for ages before I found out about layers and layer masks. Yes, I found that out by accident (forgot to fill the layer) and slapped my head afterwards for not thinking enough. R stein is the "Meet the GIMP" guy, he must have figured out the transparent layer thing after the episode I saw. You don't even have to fill the layer with grey, transparent works great too. Light and Shadow -> Paint with Light (one layer) If you have FX Foundry-scripts installed look at Thanks, I tested it just now and it is really cool!

To make parts darker (ie burn) paint the grey layer using the blackĤ.
Set the opacity of the tool to about 10%ģ. Fill it with 50% grey Make sure it is transparent.Īt this stage that layer has zero effect on the image.Ģ. I was watching an episode of the "Meet the GIMP" and saw this neat trick:Ģ.
GIMP has a dodge and burn tool but the problem is that it alters the pixels instead of being completely deletable or reversable.
