Thanks a lot, I have now downloaded GIMP 2.8 so I will see how I get on with that. Thanks for all your info, you are a real big help to us computer illiterates lol
gerryb667 Thank you, I have an updated tutorial on the subject if you want to check it out, search my channel for "face swap". I show much better color correction method :)
This is a good tutorial for beginners.....Honestly I learned a lot...in just about 2 hours + I have learned to replace faces and correct its color... really nice ....thanks buddy!
I did too! he did a awesome job on this even though he said he could do a better job. I think it's perfect. I'd like to see more of his work!! I'm impressed
You are a awesome editor!! How did you learn so much about all the settings and what they do, also how to use them?? I just started experimenting with GIMP last night and don't know how to use it or what the settings do. What is the easiest way to learn how to use GIMP?? I've NEVER used any type of editing software until last night and I need to reduce the size of a image down to 1/2" vertically and 5/8" horizontally without losing clarity for some oval shoelace charms....
You deserve a hug for this. Thank you for sharing this with everyone it is a wonderful tutorial. What would one do if the replacement face were the darker of the two images? In your example you darkened the new face to match the old but what if the faces were reversed and you had to lighten the face to match? I would be very curious to read or see a video with that ... thank you again for your sharing.
Hi, can you help me please. Everytime after having copied the skin when I click on " light mode" it just shows me the original picture just with a different colour and the "new face" suddenly disappears. Can you help me ?
You seem to know all about Gimp, my problem is that I don't seem to have all the tools that you have, I have the same as you have on the left and the middle part where you drag and drop the images but I don't have the things on the right side that you have, do you know why I don't have them and how I get them. Thanks
My interface looks completely different. Half the tools you are using look completely different for me. Especially the blur tool. How did you get your interface to look like this?
when I try to do the Guassian blur it doesn't give me the same icon in the window as yours does, for instance, I didn't get the cross with arrows on it at the bottom left of the picture on the guassian blur window. WHat did I do wrong?
this is a great way to learn face change but for some reason after i put blur i see the face under the face i want and it shows even after playing with skin tone and trying it a dozen times ..please help
hi there,i tried to do this thing but seems like something is wrong. when i tried to using the brush to paint,the all i get is the layer one. please help me.
A beginner with Gimp... cannot figure this out. No matter how many times I try to follow the tutorial, the skin turns out brown with no transparency. I've tried a few of these tutorials and they all turn out the same way. Any help is most appreciated.
I accidently turned off the tab on the right where you change opacity and where are the layers and i don't know how to turn it on again, can somebody help me?
I have tried this several times, I go to gaussian blur and put in 200 and then it just looks like I changed the opacity again. and I see the rest of the image around the face as well again. Idk what I am doing wrong but I plan to figure it out! I do exactly what you say and it just looks like I put the other picture over and made it look like I just changed the opacity, as I said before. idk what to do to fix this. i am trying to put Mr. Bean's face on my dad as a joke
Hey the foreground color isn't the background picture when I click fill with FG color, it's just white. What do I do to make the picture the foreground color?
Can you or anyone demonstrate using GIMP on how to fix photos by removing shine from a person's face such as when the camera flash reflects on the person's oily skin. These shine spots produce almost white spots on a person's skin. I am not a photo editing PRO and GIMP is what I have available. When I search RUclips, I can find tutorials on how to fix this problem with Photoshop or other programs but there are none in GIMP. Ironically, I can only find some GIMP videos which add shine to a photo. Can someone please help?
I got it to look a lot better, but the color still didn't match, keep in mind I am color deficient as well, so I have people tell me if it is closer or farther away! lol Thanks for the video!
you are probably missing a step or this technique is not working in your case. Try watching my new tutorial on face replace I explain things better and show much better way to match skin color :)
Every time I try the Gaussian Blur, the face I'm replacing the original with slightly fades, then when I go to fill the layer with the foreground color (the original image's skin tone), then use the Soft Light, the face I'm replacing the original's with disappears and leaves only a tint on the original's face?? Help??
I have a new video on the subject, it's called realistic face swap (you can find it in my channel). I use a different technique for color matching and also explain things a little better. Go check it out :)
TeaNTea Regarding the blur, try a smaller value. Also, watch my new video on face swap. About your first question - search my channel for these two videos - "Toolbox, Dock Dialogs Basics - GIMP 2.8 Beginners' Guide ep6" and "Setting Up Your Workspace - GIMP 2.8 Beginners' Guide ep5". These two videos will help you with the basics of GIMP interface.
Ok brother well I appreciate all yoru work. But this video looks way WAY to advanced for me, as of right yet. Right now I just need to get me feet wet. I want to talk a nice picture of my self that just has some red blotches after coming out of the shower. What tutorial coud you point me to on your sight for something like that. And of course no doubt I'll subscribes. Thanks for the helps.
all the time the backgound photo look like opacoty is on 50 % watched this video like 3 hrs but i dont know what to try diff photos never get the result what i wanted but i follow u step by fucking step i pissed off now
+arnas matutis Hi, I don't know why you are not able to get good results with this tutorial. I have a newer one called realistic face swap where I use another approach for some of the steps. Search my channel for it. Hope it works for you
Please don't put the ad for your channel in the bottom right like that. The way that youtube works now, it is impossible for us to ever get rid of the popup because trying to close it causes youtube to pop up a link for your channel over the X button for the ad. It's frustrating and makes it harder to see what you're doing in the video.
Hi, I don't put these anymore but to remove them from all of my videos is going to take me forever. What you can do is go to the gear icon for the settings on the video and choose turn off annotations
Thanks a lot, I have now downloaded GIMP 2.8 so I will see how I get on with that. Thanks for all your info, you are a real big help to us computer illiterates lol

The number for the blur depends on the size of the image. In your case I think you should try it with smaller number than 200.
My interface looks completely different. Half the tools you are using look completely different for me. Especially the blur tool. How did you get your interface to look like this?
hey, very helpful but I think it'd be even more helpful if you had step by step directions (for the commands) in the description. Thanks for the help!
how exactly does your brush tool erase by default?? mine just draws a line
I also need to print multiple images for the charms on one piece of paper. how do I copy the image to fit as many as I can on the page?
the step adding the layer mask still gives a half transparent box around the face, and the gaussian blur at 200 leaves nothing of the image left.
when I try to do the Guassian blur it doesn't give me the same icon in the window as yours does, for instance, I didn't get the cross with arrows on it at the bottom left of the picture on the guassian blur window. WHat did I do wrong?
great morph metod,this is light skin tone to match dark,but problem is if i try dark skin tone to match light,can't make same result,what should i do?
this is a great way to learn face change but for some reason after i put blur i see the face under the face i want and it shows even after playing with skin tone and trying it a dozen times ..please help
Very good! Thx for tuto, files, and images!
you can do some funny stuff with this technique... thanks for the tutorial!
...to add to some bracelets that I'm making and had no luck with Google. Please help if you can. I would greatly appreciate it.
hi there,i tried to do this thing but seems like something is wrong. when i tried to using the brush to paint,the all i get is the layer one. please help me.

Amazing tutorial, much better than chopping heads off. thanks
I accidently turned off the tab on the right where you change opacity and where are the layers and i don't know how to turn it on again, can somebody help me?
I downloaded the gimp but when i open it .. it will be not responding
I have tried this several times, I go to gaussian blur and put in 200 and then it just looks like I changed the opacity again. and I see the rest of the image around the face as well again. Idk what I am doing wrong but I plan to figure it out! I do exactly what you say and it just looks like I put the other picture over and made it look like I just changed the opacity, as I said before. idk what to do to fix this. i am trying to put Mr. Bean's face on my dad as a joke
how do you get the layering menu on the right side?
im also curious how you make your brush paint transparent? you dont explain its not that way by default
Hey the foreground color isn't the background picture when I click fill with FG color, it's just white. What do I do to make the picture the foreground color?
Shadow Sinn I can't understand your question. Could you give me more details and I'll try to help :)
I figured it out thank you for responding though. :)
I'm having the same problem and I'm following his instructions step by step, I don't know what the issue is

Excellent work.
+kamil bughra Thanks :)
How come when you fill with the foreground color at 2:08 it gets clear but when I do it it actually fills it in with a color?PLEASE HELP!
make sure you have the layer mask selected when you do that, not the image.
are you sure you inverted the layer mask and selected the mask?
hahaha, i cant believe this,, your a wizard,, your a genius,, fantastic
When I try the Gaussian blur stage, for some reason it reveals part of the layer underneath. Any reason why this would be happening?
+RussIsAnOkayGuy same thing happening here
Very useful!!! Thanks!
Very nice tutorial.
I got it to look a lot better, but the color still didn't match, keep in mind I am color deficient as well, so I have people tell me if it is closer or farther away! lol Thanks for the video!
why if i put the color in the face and when i select soft light the face that i put is not appearing?
you are probably missing a step or this technique is not working in your case. Try watching my new tutorial on face replace I explain things better and show much better way to match skin color :)
thank you so much!

Tomas Augusto Try going to "view" on the menu bar and make sure the option "show selection" is checked.

Holy, shit, thanks man! Thats a good tutorial, exactly what i needed!
layer mask to me is white in black out
The images used in the tutorial Replace Face (Match Skin Color) - GIMP 2.8 Tutorial as open pictures
YES now i can finaly put Nicolas Cage's face on everything!
the original head is facing to his right but the replacement face is looking to his left! You should have flipped the replacement in x first!
wtf?
my gimp is different (i have the 2.8.8) and i cant find the opacity and layers sccreen on the right..
can someone help me?
also when i do the blur thing the whole layer is going invisible (at 200 px)

What does he says at 2:00 ?? Control + i ?? Control+ what?? I can't understand
"than "ctrl+i" to invert selection"
control+i makes the layer mask inversed but it isnt visible
1:43 to 2:12 take your time and follow exactly what he says
thx i figured it out :)
Lori Saric Hope i helped
the gaussian blur blurs the whole face, help please :(
+DeadShot8899 You need to make sure you have the new face layer's mask selected, not the layer content.
Okay so...This helped A LOT! but I cant figure Out how to put two pics Bcc I want to do a Before and After ;-; And ik This was 2 years Ago but Yh :D
Thanks Man :)
