Welcome to my latest post in the blog category. in the previous post i discussed, introduced, and shared my experience about GIMP (Gnu Image Manipulation Program). meanwhile my first post wrote about the Android application known as 'SkyTube'. this Open Source alternative application allows users to use YouTube comfortably without the need for a Google / YouTube account and therefore this application only offers read-only access to YouTube. the second blog post is about the android application known as 'MusicPiped'.this application allows users to stream any music available on You Tube for free. maybe you can check it on my previous blog if you want to read it. In this post, i want to discuss the basics of GIMP (Gnu Image Manipulation Program) so that we all get to know this software better. So many people believe that photos, Banner is soul food. generally, these personal photos always have a way for our emotions. this can help us feel better when we need it, can give satisfaction when we see it and so many people believe that editing photos, makes the logo design very difficult. at first i thought so too. however, the argument began to disappear when i discovered this GIMP software. actually, i used to be someone who doesn't like things like this. edit photos, make the design a boring thing in my opinion. instead, i prefer editing audio in the Audacity software. because my hobby is in the music world. not long after the time goes by, i always pay attention to my close friends editing photos using this GIMP software. every step taken i pay close attention. well ... at that time i felt that editing photos, making a design was fun and challenging my creativity. the next day i immediately installed the GIMP software on my PC. until now i still like to experiment and pour my creative ideas into this software. Therefore, i want to share my personal experience when using GIMP software for all of you, hopefully it can be useful.
Immediately, on this occasion i want to introduce the GIMP software in outline. in the previous post i discussed what GIMP is. However, for others to be accepted by many people, there is a need for GIMP developers to adjust and make their own extraordinary players. this can be done by adding features that will increase application usage. GIMP is not left behind in this search, the developers have been able to add several features to allow the application to stand out from the crowd. if we want to know, of course we must try to really understand. the first way you can try creating a new document in GIMP. how to create a new document in GIMP. please click File> New or use the CTRL + N key on the keyboard. A dialog box will appear that you can set as needed.
There are 33 Tool in the toolbox. Pretty much for everyday use. Each tool will be followed by some options that automatically appear at the bottom or the Tool option.
The tool option is located at the bottom of the Toolbox. the main function of the tool option is to set the attributes of a tool that is activated in the toolbox. if the tool option window does not appear, you can press the SHIFT + CTRL + T button on the keyboard.
Description of tool options, examples in the paintbrush:
1.Mode: type of brush used
2.Opacity: the level of transparency of the image object
3.Brush: brush shape and size
4.Scale: large size small brush
let's just try to make a glass picture very, very simple, yellow. Just follow the steps as shown.
Well, that's the example of our experiment today. simple right?
So, this is my first experience when i first discovered this GIMP software. i know the basics of elements first. until i really understood, i tried to learn more detailed things. there are many important elements that we must know. one of the basic things that i have outlined above. in the next post i will discuss the stages in more detail. note for all of you who are new to the GIMP software and want to learn and create a work here, "Don't miss the basics if you want to go further, because it is impossible for you to step to the fifth floor if not through the first floor"
In this article, i can review the GIMP software according to my personal experience and the collection of reliable information from the software. i also share my opinions and suggestions about some features. the GIMP software is amazing and i am impressed. Although there are some users who don't like this application because its features are still standard, but it is very unique and comfortable to use. Maybe this application is quite comfortable for me.
