ok so i got a file that now reads, "gmic_gimp", and the better question is where do i put so it works? In my Gimp Plug in Preferences, it has the /Users file as the first one.

Did you try following Akky's tutorial? I notice she isn't on at the moment, but she usually comes on around this time.

Try pointing to it in Edit-Preferences-Folders-Plug-ins (where the file is downloaded to)

what do you mean? When I go there, the two things i see are

/Users/bearsfreak23/Library/Application Support/Gimp/plug-ins
and below it
/tmp/skl/Gimp.app/Contents/Resources/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins

when i click the folder button to the right
/Users/bearsfreak23/Library/Application Support/Gimp/plug-ins
I see it in there, but again its not in the filters menu

Right, create a new pointer, should be a blank paper icon, click it, browse to the actual plug-in you downloaded for G'MIC, then reboot GIMP and see what happens.

The first location, where you put it. The only way GIMP will recognize it is by pointing GIMP directly to it.

Yes but it is the same exact location because I literally copy and pasted it into /Users/bearsfreak23/Library/Application Support/Gimp/plug-ins and now I am opening a new location to go to /Users/bearsfreak23/Library/Application Support/Gimp/plug-ins which didnt work. before I copy and pasted it, anything i download goes to the Downloads folder, which the original copy is. should I delete the /Users/bearsfreak23/Library/Application Support/Gimp/plug-ins
copy and have it go to my downloads foldeR?

I just re-read your comment, and I now understand what you're saying about duplicate pointer locations. My bad.

Akky mentioned something about this, on her tutorial, I think.

well i have gone ahead, and deleted everyting gimp, and I am reinstalling it. In the morning, I will attempt it again, but I guess I got to figure out what are the "GIMP recognized folders" are. And I have been looking at Akky's tutorials, but they are all for older versions.

is it possible the latest mac version of gmic doesnt work with the latest version of gimp or the latest version of MacOS? (or any combination of those 3?)

That's what I'm hoping the G'MIC Flickr discussion will help you with.

I have GMIC 1.5 now for a starter...so you have to download GMIC 1.5 for your operating system which should be if you have the latest atm...Mac OS 10.6.7. If you are talking about Lion, which is Mac OS 10.7 and you are fortunate enough to have that..then forget about using GIMP at all for the time being as it will not work in 10.7 for now

I know that GIMP will not work at all on Snow Leopard and I am wary to try it on 10.6.8
