Gimp free photo editing software part 3, selection selections - HD video tutorial

Hi friends I'm Dan, today we will continue the tutorial about Gimp, this is the third part where we will talk about "Making Selections".

Many of you, in the comments box, you compared with the Gimp Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Photoshop is a program dedicated PRO segment and can not be compared in any way with Gimp, which is 100% free, yet the Gimp you are very good and not saying for a moment that it is a free program.

For home users and those who want to take the first steps in graphic design and editing, gimp is the best choice, photoshop is inclined towards professional use and it is therefore a bit harder to understand by users at the beginning of way.

The theme of the third tutorial in the series GIMP tutorials is "making selections." In this tutorial there are several selection methods.'ll Have to choose when you process your own images those methods that are best suited for situations in time. I recommend for making selections as to use a larger zoom, add masks, layers and an essential ingredient to have rabdare.Acest tutorial describes how you can insert an image of a baby inside a floral frames respectively as can add various effects to a text.

For a better understanding of the examples in this tutorial video about Gimp, it is necessary to view the first two tutorials:

1. Gimp free program to edit photos 1 the installation and layers.

2. Gimp, free editing photos, the 2 masking layers.

I wish you pleasant viewing and we expect these video tutorials on GIMP. Download test files

    Super hard, a lot of work but… take a look tomorrow I'm some crazy people who have something to object ,,, that's not good ,,, that's what you missed a bit ,,,,,,, ,, let them do it too if they have what and they are able to !!!!! Go ahead Dane who likes it will learn it's good that you started from scratch !!! SUCCESS

  4. Good for you are the best in May do some tutorials on effects in photos!

  5. I hope you doing some parts!

  6. For TEXT effects, when I give that “embossing” effect I don’t change my text but open another page identical to and with the unmodified text, every time I try to give the text that embossing effect, it opens for me. another window with the image and text still unchanged. Why?
    I did exactly what you showed in the tutorial but nothing, I also opened another window with the same picture and text output without effect in relief.

    Thank you.

  7. @roxana: That phenomenon that describes it probably happens because you checked the "Work on copy" option when you apply the "Add bevel" filter. Uncheck that option.

  8. CORLEONE said

    @Then: You know a program that I could cut a piece EX dintrun film, the middle of the movie is a mistake and want to remove it keeps the rest of the film (ie only what is in the middle to cut)??? Thanks

  9. @CORLEONE: VideoPad tutorial man that has been made or Virtual Dub are both free!

  10. @ CORLEONE: I recommend using program Avidemux.In principle I think you succeed with VideoPad (add the entire movie in Sequence, make two cuts at the beginning and end of the time you want to eleminate it from the movie, and finally delete that section exporti film).

  11. @CORLEONE: Easy Video Splitter

  12. Thanks Dane, I succeeded.

  14. Siti a program that can add text in movies? If you are with VideoPad doubles the size of the film is 709 1400 mb-1500 mb.Imi you recommend a program?

  15. Nobody knows??

  16. @ Sergiu: In VideoPad when you export the file to change the settings: Click on Options-Video Encoder compression settings, and choose a lower value on Average and Maximum bitrate bitrare and the sound format you can choose an option to lower Hz but with stereo option.

    Very cool guys greet all your tutorials and everything you do here will rock!
    I liked the comment lu Christ what she watch those people who instead of doing something useful to pee sitting and playing fifa or others like that.
    However I also have a question for you and a nice please, I want to give him to me at the University Constantin Brancusi tg.jiu to a section that sounds asha technological systems engineering Automatics and Applied Informatics, little thing that occupies dak and I would be more useful utlila can dekat Economic Informatics at Holy Town where akolo wanted him to give up one night and I kand button and you to find out the news on TV as something that many students at pilitehnica this year and I chose this section to choose and him saying that there are many employment opportunities AjTi said, what do you think you make a mistake or not

  19. @Michael Cerbulescu: Do not take after talking to the TV or looking after it, no way to choose the way in life, everything is much simpler.
    You gotta do what you like, if you do what you love in life will not be happy, purpose in life is to be happy and to be happy with yourself when you look in the mirror.
    If you choose a career based on what the market demands, I live a mediocre life, faded, gray and will not ever performance.
    If you do something for fun, believe me she'll be the best and most appreciated, no matter the money, first of all preforms are expected to achieve, then come and easy money.
    WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN LIFE should not necessarily be: doctor, lawyer, programmer etc.
    Can you be and toolmaker-Mould, if you like that, that have to do and you get the best toolmaker-Mould in the world, because you do so much.

  20. Hi Dan,
    Once again congratulations and thanks for work I do. I want to tell you something. In general I do pretty well with PC, I even work at a store where I do PC service, 😀 however I am convinced that to achieve something really successful in the field of graphics , the technical ability is not enough, if you are not a bit artistically talented to say so..Concretely, as I told you I opened Gimp for the first time, I didn't manage to do anything with it..I didn't even stay to study it, I admit, this and because I knew other simple programs that could do what I wanted. Now things have changed a little, in the sense that I would have liked to explain somehow scientifically and practically the changes that occur when someone ages … I have 2 pictures with an artist, at a difference of 30 years between them… and I would have liked by comparison and modification to see what has changed in the face of that, about what changes should be made to the photo from 60 years to look like 25 ...
    I have seen many tutorials and examples of "removing" wrinkles, but after these processes the person in question "rejuvenates" by max 10-15 years, not by 30. I have also seen "aging" that is still unrealistic. It is not enough. to add to a young face some wrinkles to look old. There are enough young people with wrinkles and dark circles or other signs and for. this is still seen to be young. On the other hand there are quite a few elderly people who have no wrinkles or are insignificant, and yet have the expression of an old man… And there is another aspect, even in a blurred picture, or from a great distance , in which the facial lines are barely distinguishable, no more wrinkles or spots, but even so it is very obvious that the person is young or old.
    As I didn't see an example of dramatic "rejuvenation" and I didn't find any "specialist" friend in something like that to help me, I decided to experiment on my own ... and your tutorial failed ...: P
    Incidentally, you may have noticed that so far, no star (so wealthy man) who resorted to all means plastic surgery (breast lift, implants, lasers. Etc. ..) does not look like 25-30 years. Considering that practically these doctors, you come away completely skin of the face and how they move and do what they want with it .. starting to become somewhat absurd that both interventions fail to restore the appearance of old May you ..
    So with the 2 pictures in front, only the portion from the root of the nose up, to remove the cheeks, chin .. I started to compare the differences .. at first I moved only the eyes, from one to another .. then the whole portion that it also contains the eyes ..the result..the picture in which she is young, with aged eyes, she is still young only she has a different facial expression but she is definitely young… and the picture in which she is old with young eyes..is seen from a post that she's old even with those eyes
    I used the "patch tool" to blur the differences between skin colors from one to another, but I didn't know exactly the color I copied, it seemed to have somehow made a combination.

    Okay, so a lot easier ..: D I tried to draw an ellipse with less bold outline, write a text for it .. and I found .. I understand that might be made by concentric ellipses 2 filling the space between them with a simple color .. but can not ..?
    I hope I'll make some time to answer me, all the best!

  21. @ Neagh: 1.Te please just send me the two images on e-mail.Voi address this topic in next tutorial.
    2. Build an elliptical selection with "Ellipse Select Tool", then Select-Border, choose the color and finally Edit-Fill with FG Color.

  22. EoliThic said

    Very good that you described each tool separately. Quite difficult to create a text (my 'achievement' http://i26.tinypic.com/28jfec6.jpg I wanted something else but this is .. )
    In other news waiting in the next tutorial tricks complex (changing the color of the face, removal of blemishes, removing wrinkles, changing the color of the sky, combining a picture of 2 2 characters pictures look so different they are from the same photo, to body fatness)
    Now I hope you do not mind but I want to learn this anyway congratulate you. what you did in the 3 tutorials so far, helped me very mult.MS!
    When will the next tutorial appear?
    PS A little problem with the tutorial, at least to me sound a picture taken before.

  23. Catalin said

    When I go OK sound with movies and I like to say asa.Aprob EoliThic Dane says the colleague can show us a little bit about what he listed, especially as we expect it last about GIMP.Abia tutorial, luck and Dane bonus at work!

  29. @Dan: Thanks for. answer, I tried and it worked out… it was practically a super simple thing and it had to be somewhere…. I think about the multitude of effects, how difficult it must be to imagine what practically everyone means..to know what do you need..
    I sent mail, sorry for. it's so much ..
    So see you next Sunday tuorial Gimp?

  30. I don't know what I pressed anymore and the bottom of the Toolbox disappeared and it writes to me You can drop dockable dialogs here…. what settings should I change to reappear?

  31. @Alexx: In the "Layers, Channels" window you have a button in the shape of a triangle. Click on that button-Add tab-Tool Options. Finally by "drag and drop" you bring the panel to the Toolbox.

    Dear Dan Constantin,

    But address you videotuturial.ro team.
    I 56 years and take care of electronic 40 without necessarily being a fan of software and programming.
    Instead I taught in parallel with a major telecommunications company to several generations of students and even students (laboratories). I'm writing this to congratulate you on how ralizare of this tutorial, not only by the complexity of explanation or high level of knowledge of the program, as evident by teaching skills that you have.
    I WISH YOU CONTINUOUS SUCCESS AND IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY A TEACHER, IN THIS HUNGER OF PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO EDUCATE YOUNG PEOPLE, DARE ……….!

    Sincerely yours,
    Mircea Teodorescu

    I downloaded the latest version of gimp. no longer appears black white panel tollbox. do not know where you activate occur. can someone help me? thanks

  59. I like all these tutorials because they are very explicit, being an elderly person who has never worked with such programs. Mr. Dan you are an excellent pedagogue. I would like you to continue doing tutorials in this program, I know that there are many on the internet, but I think that many others do not know English and we find it difficult to understand.
    I'd like a tutorial explaining how we can turn a black and white photo into a color, where the person in the photo is hairy and colorful and I'd love to help with a tutorial if possible.
    I would like to do a tutorial like this in Romanian, I'm trying to do this for my game but I can not, I do not understand the language and it's hard. This is the tutorial:https://youtu.be/Radqk29Bz_E which I would like in Romanian and more explicit if it can. Thank you in the hope that you will help me. I have the Gimp 2.8.22 version in the computer because I recently saw your tutorials and I started to learn how can I do with this program?

    Hello
    I have a problem with the Gimp 3 tutorial, more specifically text editing. When I get to the Pasted Layer, after switching to the To Path option, I delete the top layer and press the CTRL + C + V keys, the tutorial shows the layer called Pasted Layer written in green, and the Fooating Selection extension, written with black and do not understand where they are wrong.
