Thanks, OMG. :)

Who's script is it now? I'm going to be experimenting with some tweaks to the original tutorial that may also benefit the script.

Grachaen or OMG,

At what stage are you at

Open a blank image and fill with white
Using the path tool make a few random clicks around the image
Stroke the path to get something like this

Then run the script

Hi hardy111
.

You need to create a path from text or from a shape.
Once you have some kind of path,
run the script.

Great script! Worked first time for me.

Going to have fun with this script :)

Win 7 / 64bit Gimp 2.8.18 & very old Dell desktop highly modified (Optiplex 740)





Maybe I'll dream up a signature for me now :)

I'm using an Optiplex 745 Mini Tower and it's also highly modified as well.
This model and the 740,
is soon to be about 10 years old.

and so of course, a script that utilizes background after ColorToAlpha-ing for you and merges with background for you. so that you can quickly create more lightning animations. It'll use your selected active layer as background and remove it for you after it's done so that you're left with animation frames ready to export to gif.

script will available under Script-Fu/Lightning like Zeus with background...Like the first script in the 1st post it also needs the .py plug (from the first post).
