Yes i know, but again, the script kaputs when I use non-filename characters (like the :) smiley). Using the static file name overcomes that issue.

You realize you can edit the files and rename them, right? Yes, a hassle, I know. I wish I knew gimp python better than I do. Unfortunately there isn't a book that goes into great detail. |

Have you looked at the Python-Console under Filters Mahvin.That should help you with coding a lot. |

My biggest problem is not knowing enough. I know just enough to be dangerous and obliterate plug-ins (thank goodness you can always start all over with a fresh copy). I've been looking at smaller Python plug-ins to de-construct them with the hope I learn something (I usually do). The console helps me see my mistakes, saves me time by pointing out where the mistakes are, but some burps of code still elude me (like found in scanlines.py). |

Didn't Rod say he got the original phrase_brush.py working in his Windows XP? Molly, you may not need this updated file. Have you tried using the original? (I'm too lazy to scroll back through the posts) |

Yes mahvin. The first one I put in was the original, then I put in the two you made. The last one was the win7 64 bit and that is the one I got the farthest with. It shows in my file > Create> New brush, and it also shows in Gimp > help, plugins. BUT, I get the error that it isn't recognized in the brushes...... go figure....it is what you call "the Molly curse"

It's the Molly and Photomaster curse! I get the same error that you are getting! The "exact" same error message!! EDIT: I also noticed in both Molly's error message and mine, that several of the "\" show up in the error message as "/"! I think this is some indication, but don't yet know about python programming. |

thanks pogo. I downloaded your plugin, took the one out I had, put yours in the plugin folder. It shows up. I went File > create then I used the default. I didn't get any error, BUT I didn't get any text either. It looked like it was going to work cuz the bar went across then nothing...... Maybe I don't know how to use it.... |

@PM, Did you get an error, or did it just not work.... If you didn't get an error then you will find it in your brushes folder. just look for the first letter of you sentence...that is your brush.. |

PhotoMaster wrote: I downloaded the latest and it still won't work for me! It's hiding from you in the brushes dialog. Look for the first letter of your phrase in the brushes. It's listed alphabetically.Here's a screen shot of Oregonian in there.  Find it and click your Paintbrush. You can use a gradient with it if you want.

Did you try Pogo's attachment? Molly's wasn't working until she got that one. |
