    Dude you are so good at this. I really appreciate you talking through exactly what you are doing, like saying the specific values because it means I can follow along with RUclips minimized and gimp opened for maximum time use. Thank you!!

    I've had a vinyl cutter for over 20 years... I'm thinking of buying a new Roland print-cut unit now... Your Gimp/Inkscape videos are incredible for showing me what's possible to create, and how to do it! Thank you so much for posting!

    Awesome tutorial! It was a bit difficult equating the instructions to the new version of Gimp, but it helped me get more familiar with the tools and such, but regardless thanks for making this video

    In GIMP 2.10 it seems that the gaussian blur plugin is different from the version you're using (150 produces a very larger blur).
    Actually, also the "HSV Noise" is different in result...

    • @hungrygrimalkin5610
      @hungrygrimalkin5610 4 года назад +7

      Yeah, don't just get spoon fed, make adjustements you will still get the result he portrays. For me just a value of 30 works fine for the blur I want but you may seek to deviate. It's up to you.

      Just had the same issue. Plus the 2.10 blurs and gradients don't seem to fade very well. I just went back to 2.8 and it seems to be working much better. Plus scripts work again.

    • @TrashPoet
      @TrashPoet 4 года назад

      in the newer gimp version its much easier to adjust the most effects, except the Noise.. it was pain in the ass until i had a result i was fine with and that it looked like in the video.

    The stars and lens flare weren't too customizable, so I used some stock photos with blending mode set to "screen" instead. Maybe you mentioned that already, but if not, then that is a useful trick that might help some of ya'll out.

    Is there a way to make an updated version of this or tell me what version of GIMP you used in this tutorial? Your instructions are spot on and easy to follow, but since Gimp has updated the instructions don't exactly work in the same way. Some things have been changed. Your tutorials have helped me greatly in the past.
