What else must I do for gimp to find it?

Start your gimp and look to File/Preferences under Folders/Plugins section. You should see, which paths are searched by your gimp.

Place the downloaded file to any of the displayed directories, if you are using linux then make it executable (chmod ugo+x filename) and restart gimp. (You must be root to place the file anywhere else then your home directory.)

Then it should show under Python-Fu menu. If it does not, try to look to menu Xtns/Plugin browser and search for "dvd".

However, it did not work for me anyway, due to some missing procedure (I use gimp-2.3.3):
Traceback (most recent call last):

first, you should see if your gimp has python installed. you can check this easily by looking in the Xtns menu to see if "Python Fu" appears there.

Hi list,

How could I separete an image in two with the same size of both.

I am planning to put a title image but my blog does not accept only one image to the Blog title.

sincerely

1. open image
2. Use rectangle selection tool
3. Make selection
4. Cut
5. Paste into new image
6. Return to cut image
7. Select remaining image
8. Cut
9. Paste into another new image

If you experiment with the circle and retangle selection tools, you should be able to make some interesting "half images"
