Hello there,

I'm happy to announce the release of a small update, numbered 1.5.8.2 of the G'MIC package.
Here is the changelog :

New features:

- New command '-puzzle' and associated plug-in filter 'Arrays & tiles / Puzzle' :

[ Image ]

- New command '-map_sprites' and associated plug-in filter 'Patterns / Op art', that replaces image pixels by various shapes.

[ Image ]

- New command '-detect_skin' and associated plug-in filter 'Colors / Detect skin', that tries to detect pixels of skin in portrait images.

[ Image ]

- New filter 'Repair / Smooth [skin]' in the GIMP plug-in. It allows to automatically smooth people skin in portrait images.

[ Image ]

- Update of the filter 'Details / Details equalizer'. It allows to apply various image transformations on different levels of details.

[ Image ]

Improvements:

- Command '-bilateral' : second argument (sigma_r) now accepts an additional %.
- Additional debug informations are now integrated by default when a custom command file is loaded. It allows the interpreter to locate more precisely (filename + line number) when error occur in an external source file. Very useful for developers of G'MIC commands.
- Command '-otsu' returns the list of used thresholds in the status.
- Work has been done to reduce the required heap memory for the compilation.

Bug fixes:

- Fixed bug in command '-display' for the display of images with nan values.

I hope you will enjoy this release !

David.

Compiling the 64-bit GIMP plugin from GIT now David.

Here's the link to 64-bit plugin (all files included; if you already have G'MIC on your system, all you need is the gimp_gmic.exe plugin file):

Thanks Lyle, I've updated the web site with your new version for Win64.
Now, I have some professional constraints which will take me some time, so I probably won't have lot of time to work on G'MIC during the next months.
Hope everything will be OK with this one !

I hope you have a good professional work. Please attend the gimpchat occasionally, if you can.

As a normal user (using this wonderful addition to what is GMIC) does not always keep up with the changes in the program.
I guess I picked a bad time for a wish list ?
Just a small suggestion (request) on the list of filters.
http://gmic.sourceforge.net/gimp_filters.txt
Currently, there are two lists:
List of filters, sorted by path.
List of filters, sorted alphabetically.
These two lists are very useful - but:
Not all the news and changes (amendments), you can quickly learn.
Is it possible to add:
List of filters, sorted by latest update?

ps. Recently I have a problem with the filter Mosaique 1 - completely freezes my computer (even for test image 20x20 px) - please check if it is only my problem?

Just ran a test on the Mosaique 1 and it's working okay here. I'm running G'Mic version 1.5.8.2 and Linux Mint 16. Hope this helps.

I d/led new G'Mic release,but when i restarted Gimp 2.8 ,I get message that G'Mic exec is missing.
So I ended uploading the new Gimp 2.8 something for it to work..Yes I am on win 7 64 bit

Download GMIC compiled by Samj, and if you still are there any problems with the filter report the problem on the blog. Page "samj Créations" works again

I found the G'Mic version for 64 bit but now I'm stuck on how to install it. I'm using the latest version of gimp, windows 7 64 bit. There are 2 GMIC folders with in the 64 bit folder that I downloaded. I'm wondering which folder to use and where to put the files.

Folder 1: GMIC-64bit WIN
Folder 2: GMIC-GIMP-PLUGIN-64bit WIN

You can install the win32 plug-in, it works well for win64.
Another alternative is the builds from Samj, available here : http://samjcreations.blogspot.ca/2014/0 ... -bits.html

I will use folder 2. Where does it go when I install it?
