Sometimes, a small size is important for web sites and at other times, retaining a high color depth e. GIMP can handle all of this, and more, primarily by converting between three funda- mental modes, as seen in this menu. In order to switch your image to one of these modes, you open it and follow that menu and click the mode you want.
RGB- This is the default mode, used for high-quality images, and able to display millions of colors. This is also the mode for most of your image work including scaling, cropping, and even flipping. Each of these. What you see at every pixel is an additive combination of these three components. Indexed- This is the mode usually used when file size is of concern, or when you are working with images with few colors. It involves using a fixed number of colors or less for the entire image to represent colors.
As you might expect, since the information needed to represent the color at each pixel is less, the file size is smaller. However, sometimes, there are options in the various menus that are grayed-out for no apparent reason. This usually means that the filter or option cannot be applied when your image is in its current mode. Changing the mode to RGB, as outlined above, should solve this issue. Grayscale- Grayscale images have only shades of gray. This mode has some specific uses and takes.
There is no need to convert an image to a specific mode before saving it in your favorite format, as GIMP is smart enough to properly export the image. Use this option when you need the person in the photo looking in the other direction, or you need the. After selecting the flip tool from the toolbox, click inside the canvas.
Controls in the Tool Options dockable let you switch between Horizontal and Vertical modes. The tool flips the image hori- zontally. Use the options dialog to switch between horizontal and vertical. If it is not already displayed in the dock under the toolbox, double click the toolbox button. You can also use the Ctrl key to switch between horizontal and vertical.
Images that are taken with digital cameras sometimes need to be rotated. The images below demonstrate a 90 degrees CCW rotation. Sometimes you need to separate the subject of an image from its background. You may want to have the subject on a flat color, or keep the background transparent so you can use it on an existing background, or any other thing you have in mind.
This is not an easy task, and selecting the correct tool is crucial. You have several tools to accomplish this. Use this when the subject has a relatively simple shape. Read more about this tool here: Section Use this when the subject is complex but distinct enough against its current background. Now, instead of the subject, the background is selected. What you do now depends on what you intended to do with the background. Next, use Section Next, use Edit Clear or hit the Del key on the keyboard to remove the background. Please note that only a small subset of file formats support transparent areas.
Your best bet is to save your image as PNG. In the dialog that opens, cycle between the modes and select the best- looking one, then click OK. The original tutorial can be found in the Internet [TUT01]. This tutorial shows you how to draw straight lines with GIMP.

Forcing a line to be straight is a convenient way to deal with the imprecision of a mouse or tablet, and to take advantage of the power of a computer to make things look neat and orderly. The invention called the typewriter introduced the Shift Key. You generally have 2 of them on your keyboard.
They look something like the figure above. The keys are located on the left and. The mouse was invented by Douglas C. Engelbart in These come in different varieties, but always have at least one button. Click on the paintbrush in the toolbox. Click in the image where you want a line to start or end. A single dot will appear on the screen. The size of this dot represents the current brush size, which you can change in the Brush Dialog see Section Now, lets start drawing a line.

Hold down the Shift key, and keep it down. After you have a starting point and while pressing the Shift key, you will see a straight line that follows the cursor. Press the first button on the mouse the leftmost one usually and let it go. This is a powerful feature. You can draw straight lines with any of the draw tools.
You can even draw more lines at the end of this one. Our last step is to let go of the Shift key. And there you have it. Some more examples are shown below. Happy GIMPing! Use the Erase line with a slightly larger brush. Tool with a square brush to draw a line. Use the rectangle select tool to select a rectangle, and then fill the selection with a light blue color. Set the type to Dodge and paint along the top and left side using an appropriately sized brush.

Set the type to Burn and paint along the right and bottom. Your fists are starting to clench, and your face is starting to feel warm. Are you going to have to kill the program, and lose all your work? This sucks! Well, hold on a second. Lets be calm, and go through a checklist that will probably get you GIMPing happily again.
How to tell: If there is a floating selection, many actions are impossible until the floating section is an- chored. How to solve: Either anchor the floating selection, or convert it into an ordinary non-floating layer. If you need help on how to do this, see Floating Selections. How to tell: If this is the problem, merely reading this will already have made you realize it, probably, but to explain in any case: sometimes the flickering line that outlines the selection is annoying because it makes it hard to see important details of the image, so GIMP gives you the option of hiding the selection, by unchecking Show Selection in the View menu.
It is easy to forget that you have done this, though. There are a couple of possibilities. If this was the case, it surely is not a selection that you wanted to keep, so why have you gotten. If you can see a selection but thought you were inside it, it might be inverted from what you think. The easiest way to tell is to hit the Quick Mask button: the selected area will be clear and the unselected area will be masked.
If this was the problem, then you can solve it by toggling Quick Mask off and choosing Invert in the Select menu. How to tell: The Layers dialog gives you ability to toggle the visibility of each layer on or off. Look at the Layers dialog, and see if the layer you are trying to act on is active i. If not, this is your problem. How to fix: If your intended target layer is not active, click on it in the Layers dialog to activate it. If none of the layers are active, the active drawable might be a channel -- you can look at the Channels tab in the Layers dialog to see.
This does not change the solution, though. If the eye symbol does not appear, click in the Layers dialog at the left edge to toggle it: this should make the layer visible.

See the Help section for the Layers Dialog if you need more help. How to tell: When the opacity is set 0 on the layer, you cannot see anything which you draw on it. Look the Opacity slider, and see which side the slider placed at. If it is at the leftmost side, that is your problem. How to fix: Move the slider. If you try to paint outside the borders of a layer, nothing happens. How to fix: You need to enlarge the layer. There are two commands at the bottom of the Layer menu that will let you do this: Layer to Image Size, which sets the layer bounds to match the image borders; and Layer Boundary Size, which brings up a dialog that allows you to set the layer dimensions to whatever you please.
The indexed colormode uses a colormap, where all used colors on the image are indexed. That means, if you try to paint with a different color than it is indexed in the colormap, you end up in very undetermined results e. You can verify and select another color mode from the Mode menuitem in the Image menu.
