Yin-Yang 2

__________________________
How to Install the Plug-in
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

Copy the “YinYang” folder and paste it into a GIMP 3 plug-ins folder. You can find GIMP's plug-in folder locations in Gimp 3's main window menu "/Edit/Preferences" dialog. There's a “Folders” item which has the plug-in paths.

If there's a previous version already installed, then delete the files located in the YinYang folder before copying and pasting the new version. However, the preset folders are unchanged, so they can be kept intact.

Where to Find the Plug-in Inside GIMP 3

After copying and pasting the YinYang folder, restart GIMP. On inspection, the Yin Yang plug-in will list under Gimp 3's main window menu, "/Filters/Render".

What is Yin-Yang About
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Besides being cool, this Yin-Yang plug-in may be useful for theme and styling, color study, and pyschology. Generally a theme has tension which polarity embues. Styling has consistency which polarization can produce. Color study and pyschology lend themselves to personal taste and goals.

How is the Yin-Yang Image Made
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
An image is a made by dividing a circle into wedges which simulate motion. The materials are processed from selection saves and are filled once they are combined into Yin and Yang motion.

In order to create an animation from a generated Yin-Yang image, export the image as "GIF" file-type. The "WebP" file-type format will work as for animation too.
