| please let us know from where we can download gimp, if its free then we can try it and very easily we can handle it, and if gimp is like photoshop 6, then it will be really professional way to make graphic. |

GIMP stands for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is freely available for download at http://www.gimp.org
Its available for different platforms like windows, mac and unix and also available in different languages. |

I've used GIMP quite a few times before. It's pre-installed on Ubuntu Linux, so it's what I use when on Linux.
It is a pretty nice program, but it is missing some of the features photoshop has. _________________ www.virii.info |

hello,
It is very easy and less than 8 steps in GIMP. I read the same process, explained in over 25 steps! Its a good idea to save time and have the exact same output in fewer steps!
1.Open the Image you want to work on.
2.Select the area which you want to keep colored. The most important is, USE THE RIGHT SELECTION TOOL. You can select a square, a circle or a free selection by using many of the tools available (Free select, Scissor, Create a path and select from it etc.)
3.Go on the "Select" tool on the top menu bar and click on "Invert"
4.Click on the "Image" on the top menu bar and click on "Colorify"
5.Make sure that custom color is selected on white color square.
6.Click OK.
7.Adjust some brightness and contrast from image menu (Only if required)
8.There is no eighth step! We are done!
Thanks |
