Hmm. Due to selective demand, I've begun to assemble a few articles, tutorials and tips on how to use the aforementioned brushes, patterns etc. but also on various other subjects.

Some of these things are old - the manual is clearly better - and some is hurled together in a few minutes.

Well, anyway..

VERY nice tutorials!
Easy to read and easy to follow.
Not to mention the great collection of brushes and patterns "made for us"...

Thank you Rene!

Thanks. I'm glad you like them.

Could you please send this letter to the list for me? I would be very grateful.

I've given up posting to gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu now. It would seem that I have to unsubscribe, resubscribe and wait an hour just to be able to post a single letter.

=============================================================== LAYER STYLE PYTHON PLUGIN.....

I'm surprised nobody has hacked on that before. After all, it's all there: Parasites that gets saved with the image/layer, a python module that can update the editor-view live, a complete scripting language with gtk bindings.

I spend a handful of hours trying to make a proof-of-concept. See what you think..

http://www.artcamilla.dk/vaultage/cornucopia/gimp-plugins/layer-style.py

1) Make a test image with a background and a transparent layer with say a filled small rectangle.

2) Python-fu / Alchemy / Layer Style

3) Drag the slider

4) Close the dialog

5) Save the image and close it

6) Reopen the image

7) Select either the original gizmo layer or the auto-generated style layer

8) Invoke Python-fu / Alchemy / Layer Style again and play with the slider.

There's a HUGE TODO list on that script, but the necessary basics are proven available although IT IS SLOW! But there are room for optimization, especially with a little help from the real pros who knows what is fast and what is slow.

WARNING: Cheap tricks such as this will become obsolete once GEGL is ready, I can image.. :)

Enjoy

P.S.: All my letters to this list seem to bounce.

Sorry, but may I ask why? The posts from Rene seem to have shown up on this list just fine.
