I had updated earlier and went through the same thing and thought I goofed - fortunately when I start up GMIC I tend to run an image through several different filters and ran across both the Ink Wash and Graphics Boost in the Artistic menu.

This is the image I tinkered with, my initial variation from the "Create this gradient Effect?" thread.

Hey Bob, I played with your image. I downloaded both your original and the ink washed one. Ink wash top layer, mode set to Divide. Looks like it's painted with water color.

Nice!

I think it's becoming a compulsion for me to take an image and run it through different filters just to see what comes out the other side. Earlier I did the gold explosion image I posted in the same thread. If I use ink wash and output a new layer, then use Lighten Only mode, it sort of looks like either a mix of silver and gold or glass and gold (depending on your imagination).

I just installed G'MIC 1.4.7.1 and Ink Wash is listed under the Presets/Testing menu.

Aha! I discovered I had 2 versions of GMIC installed. When I removed all versions and reinstalled gmic_1.4.7.1_amd64.deb it went back to the Presets/Testing menu.

I think I'm more confused now that I was before...but as long as it works.

PC: I notice that your .gmic file version doesn't implement a transparent background, but the UI version does. Is that something that David implemented for G'MIC's version or was it in your original code?

All of you who just installed G'MIC 1.4.7.1, after you click the Refresh button inside G'MIC, the Ink wash filter will be removed from the Testing/Presets menu.

It will then be found in Artistic > B&W Ink wash. Bob supersleuthed that one.

It isn't in my artistic. Just looked, then looked again.

spectral cat....already forgot what I did except for the last step was b&w inkwash.

Well, I tried running some of those photos through this filter and these are the results. I left the ink washed layer in place and tried a few different things with the color layer in an attempt to get the effect I was looking for.

I experimented a little with the one below and it turned out kinda wild looking.

Rhododendron#2 (original)


Blood Spattered Rhododendron#2 (GMIC)

This got me un-confused. After I posted about finding it, I read AeonTown's post so I started checking my system and discovered I somehow had two versions of GMIC. I cleaned everything out and went and got the current .deb package for my system and installed it, which placed the filters in Presets/Testing. Then I clicked the Refresh button and they moved to Artistic. Odd seeming behavior, but at least everything stopped jumping around. I'm not saying this has anything to do with Molly's missing filters, it was just a weirdness I encountered.

GnuTux, your camellias look - is "impressionistic" the right word? Very nice!

2-ton, that's a very cool effect. My two kittens are too noisy to be mistaken for spectres.

GnuTux your flowers are beautiful. I particularly like that camellia bush. The upper right corner looked kind of bright so I put some sky behind it. Don't know if I helped or messed it up though. I didn't like the ink wash filter on the sky so I used the Graphic Novel FX filter on it.



@2-ton: I love your spectral cat.

Thanks! That's better. The sky in my original picture is totally washed out.

I fixed Rhododendron#1 back in that post. I got a nicer result by using ink wash on a layer that had the GMIC paint filter previously applied.

Your re-do on rhododendron #1 is spectacular! It would be gorgeous printed on artist canvas and framed to put on the wall.

To clear a bit the confusion about jumping filters:
when you install last stable version of Gmic (1.4.7.1)they are under Preset/testing, because that version was compiled before the changes

At soon you refresh filter gmic (if you are connected to the net) will (except for some hidden detail) basically update to the next incoming version where the new versions of the already tested filter are moved in the proper menu, and the new version are modified to support transparency and multiple input/output

New version are identical to what i posted here lately except that the version i posted here were compatible with older version, while
that from the update will REPLACE the old version and they may be renamed as BW Ink Wash for Ink Wash and Graphic Boost for PhotoComix Graphic boost, and moved out of the testing menu

Last if you had paste the versions i posted here in a .gmic file, you have not to worry ;
you would have a couple of clones but are not conflicting, you may delete the clone from the .gmic file but if you don't would be no
issue except 2 equivalent version of the same filter showing twice, on top where are the faves, and in the normal menu

PC,
Thanks for explaining.
