You need layerfx.py for this script to run correctly.

You can get Layerfx.py here - place it in your plug-ins folder.Restart Gimp.

This should work for Gimp-2.6 , but it's only been tested in Gimp-2.8
Please let me know.
I am working on another script for shredded text also.Hence the reason why this one says
;;; Plugin  : Shredded Text
;;; Author  : Rod Detmer
;;; Date    : August 6th 2012
;;; Revision: 1.0
;;;                
;;; Version : 1.0
;;; Latest version at: http://www.gimpchat.com
;;; Required : Gimp 2.8 or later
;;;
;;; Description:
;;; Creates a shredded steel text effect on your text colored #666666

at the top. :) I just forgot to change that part when i copied all of it to the other script.
Also it was before i actually figured out how to select the alpha channel and color it. heheh.
I had fun writing it though!
The filter is located at - Script-Fu/Text Effects/Chiseled Steel in the menus.
Enjoy, and
Thanks!

You can also run shapes with this script.

So that is kinda cool. :) :bigthup

A Times Roman font type face works real nice with the script.

Doh! I clicked the link from your thread. So, obviously I didn't see it.

Edit: It might just be me but I'm seeing images covering words. Otherwise, there are two gradient files in the zip.

Thanks Rod. Apparently it is. I just installed Chromium and it looks fine. Never had that problem before.
