The curves added a little greenish corrosion to the copper text which is good. I should have used a darker bevel as it kind of got lost in the color curves. The addition of color curves to the script would be very nice. I don't know how you did your color curves, dd, but I did mine after I merged the bevel layer to the text layer.

dd wrote: Hi cecilia, hope you get your plugins working. I also suggest you download the new updated version of selection bevel. (note that you'll have to remove the old 1.41 file from the plugin directory if you do!) I have now uploaded Bevel 1.5 in the registry. I suggest everyone who likes this script to upgrade asap, the preview function comes real handy. The new version also lets you select any layer mode, instead of just 4 of them. I just tried doing a bevel on multiply, and it works nice when you add another thinner bevel on soft light on top of it... (yeah I know, it's not like you couldn't change the layer mode yourself before... but this saves you the trouble!  )indeed, with the immediate and friendly help I have everything working. and this morning I saw the newest version and downloaded it ! As soon as I figure out the subtleties of this Fabulous plug-in I'll post my modest attempts. If you want to add any more features it would be to have a Save and Load Settings, but having a Preview is wonderful!! thank you thank you!

using mostly the default settings I just tried these and also used the Texture plugin (cause What The heck)  this is truly one of THE coolest plugins I have found over the years for GIMP and I've been using GIMP since I got Red Hat in 2003 I see great potential here

Nice work, and I'm glad you're happy with the plugin  As for save/load settings... I'm not totally sure if that's doable, I'll have to peruse the gtk specs to see if they have any generic save/load routines that would work on all os:s... I am however planning a feature that saves the settings on the bevel layer itself so you can simply redo the the layer with the same settings but with new shape. |

Ok, fans of bevel... here's a mini-update which I'm not going to upload to the registry (yet)... it has the gloss-function added. It's a simple on/off checkbox, and here's an image where you can see the difference with otherwise same settings:  Upper - without gloss Lower - with gloss download here: http://www.fileden.com/files/2010/2/7/2 ... vel1_51.py |

A slight update is up at the registry - http://www.registry.gimp.org/node/25199 The repeat effect (ctrl-f) now functions properly, as does non-interactive mode (you can use the script from the console or call it from your own scripts). |

That's great, dd. You've really worked long and hard on this. I like the new gloss effect.

Render texture has been updated, it also has a preview function now. Also, all layer modes + opacity setting. Get it from the registry http://registry.gimp.org/node/25198 |

Makes a great Cloudy Texture, just lower the Opacity a bit and you get that. |

This is cool. Invites playing.  I LOVE this version of texture. It's so 3D! The depth was set to 25.

tried to put this into a mac via textedit...fail. textedit will not allow .py as an extension. |

I know literally nothing about macs (the last mac I used was one of those black&white soapboxes) so can't help you there... Quote: I LOVE this version of texture. It's so 3D! The depth was set to 25. Well, apart from the UI, the code is the same... I just set the default "elevation" setting to 40 instead of 50, so maybe that's what you're noticing. |

Ok, check this out:  First, I made text. Then added texture. Then, I transfered the texture to selection (copied the texture directly to a temporary layer's mask and selected mask to selection) and beveled that selection. Lastly, I added a bevel to the text shape, and this was the result. Pretty neat. |
