Thanks! Our tracker is a good place to post the issue report and image: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/work_items (If you can, zip it beforehand, as sometimes metadata that …

Just my experience, but the relatively few fully AI-generated merge requests we've received that were "big features" were all really bad. For instance, we had one person submit a m…

Hi! Would you be willing to share one of those TIFFs? If we can reproduce the crash, we can try to fix it.

Hi! I dug through issue report archives to try and learn more about Fade. From what I understand ( https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/work_items/3558#note_7... ), it seems like …

For what it's worth, there's been a lot of turnover in developers in the last 20 years. I've read some comments on older issue reports, and it made me understand why people think G…

The first section after the recent news on the home pages says "High Quality Photo Manipulation: GIMP provides the tools needed for high quality image manipulation. From retouching…

We do - we state exactly what GIMP is and what we aim for. That doesn't stop people from having their own conceptions. The "more like MS Paint" group tends to be longtime users who…

I think the challenge is that there are so many expectations. From reading and responding to issue reports, it seems like a group of people expect us to be Photoshop and another gr…

I believe it's a step up from "design by whichever developer implemented a particular feature", which was the norm. :) More seriously, we're trying to attract more designers and de…

What version of GIMP are you running? Stable GIMP at this point (at least by our definition) is GIMP 3.2, which definitely has this feature. If you've been using 2.10 or earlier, t…

For what it's worth, there is a built-in arrow brush in GIMP 3.2 (we updated the MyPaint brushes engine and got it for free as a result).

Copy & Paste default behavior was changed in GIMP 3.0 (I was one of the people who worked on the change). GIMP 2.10 and earlier creating floating selections as described earlier. I…

Non-destructive text outline has been around for a while now: https://www.gimp.org/news/2022/11/18/gimp-2-99-14-released/#... Non-destructive resize works on vector layers and link…

Possibly as part of our in-progress extension platform. The extension infrastructure is already built (e.g. you could package the theme as .gex file and have GIMP recognize it), an…

Far from it - we even have a dedicated design site where we ask for UX-specific bug reports and improvement requests from users: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/GIMP/Design/gimp-ux/…

GIMP has a Python console, and several built-in plug-ins are written in Python: https://docs.gimp.org/3.2/en/gimp-filters-python-fu.html We want to make macros simpler (some of the…

And rectangles, triangles, and other custom shapes too I hope! :) I'll do my best. I might actually finish cleaning up the code for the version in the video and post a WIP merge re…

That's up to you. Right now filters work the same way - you can merge them automatically on creation, merge them at some point while working, or merge them on export. For formats l…

Yes, it's planned for transform tools and already possible with filters. Technically our transform tools are already capable of this (they use GEGL operations the same as our non-d…

Ah, hey! We've been busy with getting 3.2 finished, but I plan to go back and read over your latest message once we've recovered a bit. :)

That was a feature in GTK2 (the GUI library we use) that was removed in GTK3. We could try to fight the library and reimplement it ourselves, but it'd take a developer dedicated to…

If you mean the color icons, you can easily switch back to those in the Welcome Dialog that appears when you first open GIMP (look in the Personalize tab). It's the first thing I d…

I can't speak for all of us, but generally no (in terms of GenAI at least). There are concerns about generated code not being compatible with GPL, and honestly a lot of the drive-b…

The current non-destructive UI is a bit of a compromise - we can't really mix layers with NDE filters in the layer dock until GTK4 (from what I understand), so the pop-up menu is w…

Hi! What was the last version of GIMP that you used before 3.0? We get an equal amount of "GIMP's UI never changes!" and "You changed too much of the UI in the latest version", so …
