Thanks Mahvin. I noticed on the filter's "about" page, you are a contributing artist for GMIC (which also links to your artistic blog). It's very kind that you requested input for this project when you are already so incredibly talented. You modest bunker dweller with spotty wi-fi, you. I have added your blog to my ever growing to-do list for learning new things about GIMP, and now GMIC.

I work with kids in graphic arts, using Linux machines, loaded with GIMP, Inkscape, and free Paint programs. Recently the school district allowed us to incorporate Wacom tablets and pens. Everyday, I amazed by the talent these kids possess. Phenomenal artwork. People just need a little encouragement, even here, at GIMP Chat.

Thanks Wallace, I downloaded the .xcf file. I was blown away to learn you created the template. I would have expected it came from some website like Zazzle, where you can have custom things made. As always, I hope to learn something new from studying your file. Paths are still a mystery to me, but I'm cracking them a bit here and there.

Very talented, sir. Thanks for sharing.


Mahvin, how wonderful that you are introducing a new generation to GIMP and art in general. Kudos. I wish I had had that opportunity at such a young age. If you have any extremely detailed types that lean toward drawing buildings, check out SketchUp, I think it's still free.

Tin, from GIMP Learn, came out with this t-shirt concept which I decided to throw my own twist into the forum.
