Hello again all!

I posted a news item on http://www.gimp.org the other day that some of you might be interested in:

http://www.gimp.org/news/2016/05/05/rev ... tutorials/

Basically, we are open to contributions for tutorials on the website. If you don't want to write markdown I'll be happy to help out where I can. Just make sure that you're ok licensing the resulting tutorials (and images) as creative commons-by attribution-share-alike at least - this way the tutorials can stay free for use/share/remix for everyone.

Other than that, we welcome all suggestions!

What does "write markdown" refer to?

Just the format of the text for the tutorial. Plain text works fine too. :)

PAT So many questions about Perl, does 2-8-16 have it installed, where are the scripts installed in gimp
is this script ready to install

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use Gimp;
use Gimp::Fu;

podregister {
# no need to have my ($size, $color) = @_;

my $img = Gimp::Image->new($size, $size, RGB); # Create a new image
# Create a new layer
my $layer = $img->layer_new($size, $size, RGB, "Layer 1", 100, NORMAL_MODE);
$img->insert_layer($layer, -1, 0); # add the layer to the image
Gimp::Context->set_background($color); # Set background to required color
$layer->edit_fill(BACKGROUND_FILL); # Paint the layer
Gimp::Display->new($img);
return $img; # Return image - return implied by no IMAGE TYPES
};

exit main;
__END__

Gimp-Perl is a separate project available on CPAN: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Gimp/.
