The secrets on how to make artwork of the Sam/Jack ship family thread

[LiliJ]

LiliJ you can definitely do filmstrips in Gimp - Oma discovered how

Thanks, Josiane!

Ok, message to all people who have Gimp! If I post an image, will you put filmstrips on? Please? *puppy eyes* It's for a sig I'm trying to make, but not J/S, so I understand if you don't want to.

In that case, Oma can do the next tut (unless she's already explained how to do it)

Great idea for a postcard Jumble

Thanks, Josiane!

Filmstrip (Oma)

Spoiler:

I took a page out of Linda's book, and started pushing buttons I haven't done that for ages cos I've just worked within the limits of what I knew until this thread opened....so anyway, I started clicking buttons....

Remember the filmstrip MOP sig with all the kisses, asking for one more? It took me ages to make that, clipping the strip bit and duplicating it, resizing the pics so they'd fit, lining them all up, adding the little numbers....

Well, I was clicking and found this handy little button Filters>Combine>Filmstrip.

I've seen it before, but couldn't get it to work. I just realised it doesn't work on layers, nope, it's much simpler than that. You just open all the pics you want then click filmstrip on any of the pic windows.

It brings up the dialogue box asking which of the open pics you want to use, you click and add them to the list, click OK, and it puts them all on a filmstrip for you. Job done. I just tried it and it took me approximately 30 seconds.

The headache I'm getting from repeatedly banging my head on the desk is well worth it

*hugs* Thanks again! But I can't put images onto pms (I have no idea why!), so I'm just going to post it on here...

I redid one of my sigs. I wanted to use some of the mad skills I've learned here! So...The new...



And the old...

[josiane]

Cool, wow, I love that this thread is teaching us all so much
Definitely prefer the new version - Jack is clearer and it seems more sensitive somehow
Excellent!

The tut for ImageReady:

A thousand thanks, jas. Greened you earlier.

And sorry it took so long. There was a huge storm, and I lost the Internet and the cable TV

No problem.

Another beautiful job TR, poor Jack will get sore hands at this rate I'll pop it onto MOP

Jann I know what you mean, my mojo keeps going missing lately Hence yesteday's 'cheated' postcard But didn't you get a new version of PS on your new lappy? Aren't you just itching to do something amazing with it?

[Blacky Kitten]

I did...have a new version... and I want to make something...but *nothing* works out...I probably must go find myself some new stuff...but the problem with lappy is that I don't like the mouse...gonna buy a new one tonight(it's a very expensive one..(thought about it for a week to buy it or not) but it's probably waaaaaaaaaay better then the one I have now...I can't do mouse with cord) ...erm yeah...

and it's that I don't really have that much new stuff...well some..but I just can't find myself making new stuff...

also I have some requests...and I feel ashamed that I haven't worked those out already...while it are fun and good ideas...

maybe I should just open the thing...and see where I will end up

*sigh* ...for now I keep it with patience...and watching some eppies
