Create a Shape Cluster Photo Display plugin

Sun Apr 04, 2021 12:29 am

Hi Guys and Gals! This is a nice simple plugin inspire by a Photoshop tutorial found here: https://www.photoshopessentials.com/pho ... toshop-cc/
There was a tutorial done in GIMP back in 2011 from the gimpology web site that is no longer working.

Not a problem since it also only works only with a picture of specific dimensions ("You can have any colour, as long as it's black").

On the other hand, the script has some built-in magic since the start picture is a lion from the front and the result is a lion from the side :)

PS: The sides of the central square don't line up vertically with the side of the top/bottom strips and its bottom doesn't line up with the bottom of the left strip. Likely a consequence of using hard-coded values all over: when you use variables you are more likely to use the same value, and then the next level is to compute the values of these variables from the overall image size.

I disabled line 133 to keep layers, then I applied bevel using layerFX to give a look of panels.

You can do it manually using paths with whatever shape you like.
