I think there there are more ways to do any task in GIMP than I can make shows. But I’ll do a show about B&W conversion.

A great show. I always love to learn exactly how GIMP does what it does. All throughout the show, though, I was thinking “I’ve been doing much the same thing with Edge Detect”, but I suppose that Edge Detect is just an automated way of doing what Joseph was doing.

One tip that I thought was useful that Joseph didn’t mention: another way to get rid of colors in a layer is to put a black layer over your color layer and change the blending mode to “Color”.

Thanks for the great podcast,

Another fine show, thanks Rolf. I agree with Serge that there is no need for background music while you’re speaking. In fact, I would think it could be distracting and counter-productive.

The photocopy filter also makes similar results that are nice.

When the show started, I thought for a moment that I was looking at the previous one: the intro mentioned episode 26, 1st of January. But now I am niggling.

In fact, this was a very nice show. Kudos to Joseph. He demonstrated the principal of edge detection and the unsharp mask: comparing an image with its blurred one. Just put the merged gray layer in overlay or soft light (due to a bug in GIMP, these blending modes are identical), et voilÃƒÂ , the original image is sharpened!

As far as I am concerned, there is no need for music while speaking. But well, that is just my humble opinion.

Thanks again for this instructive show, Serge

I just fixed that. Thanks for pointing to that error.
