I wanted to try and create a filter to help showcase some of the amazing custom fonts that people like Alan and GJL produce weekly, if not daily, on GimpLearn: Some of their results are like miniature works of art.

This plug-in will take text (short messages are ideal) and display it a number times across an image using a selection of custom fonts from a designated folder. The text can be displayed horizontally, vertically or diagonally. There are also options to adjust the spacing between characters, to add a basic drop shadow and to shuffle the order of the layers.

Download, unzip and put the filter in your usual user plug-ins folder.



Create a new image and open the filter dialog:

Filters>>Custom Font Tools>>Custom Font WordWall v.001

Example result using recent Custom Fonts by GJL:

I am amazed at how you keep finding different ways to use the fonts! You must dream this! Thank you very much.

Thank you so much Skinnyhouse for this new tool to manage "Custom Fonts"
This one will do easier to create new decorative backgrounds. Congrats for your new script.

Exactly what I had in mind for myself.
Thanks Issabella.

Wow, Skinnyhouse; your font mantra knows no bounds. Fantastic stuff. Like your result too, Issabella.
