This is great fun! Thanks again, Graechan! (and you're welcome!)

The only thing I'm having trouble with is creating a frame... I think I have the Beautify plugin, but I'mm getting an error message....

"Animation WorkShop Warning
Error while executing script-fu-animation-workshop:

Error: ( : 1) eval: unbound variable: plug-in-simple-border"

How can I fix the animation to have the same delay at the end as the beginning. I have noticed that when it swirls or swings, it reverses (ping pong) back faster than at the start. Not meaning the whole thing, just the frames at the reverse don't seem to have the same delay as the frame at the starting point. I am not sure I am explaining this right.

'Simple Border' is one of the Beautify group of Plugins do you have it installed?

I can only try to explain as best as I can, all frame delays are set by default the same as defined in the menu, to alter the delay of a particular frame, select the frame and right click selecting at the top 'Edit Layer Attributes...' and alter the timer of that frame↑or↓

Decided to update for 2.10 and loss of 'the Beautify simple borders plug-in', any suggestions welcome for Rel5

People, in spite of how cool the new GIMP is, still like the old stuff. I'd recommend updating the plugin and let people play with it in 2.10 so they can start making suggestions about what to add or change. Please post the updated plugin to gimpscripts.net, if you have time and get the chance.

Mahvin despite losing simple borders I've created a version that uses edge masks. at the moment I'm just trying to break it :crash

Release it and everyone else will find a way to break it, lol.

But I already broke it, starting Rel5 candidate 2 now, after coffee and a smoke

Mahvin the coffee helped candidate 1 back, I realized why it broke :yes

Mahvin because I believe it's such an unique script I'll prepare some images and post to gimpscripts

Teapot what font and mask did you use for the train and how did you create the next image☺

Toy Train from dafont toy_train and the mask you created. An excellent effect Teapot :clap

Thank you. Yes that's the train font and for the mask I just drew some hills with the free select tool.

For the next image I used the letter C from this font:

Made two lots of the animation workshop rolling text, one with a transparent background. Then combined them with Ofnuts' ofn-interleave-layers to interleave a stack of layers over the current layers.

Teapot - really good anims; clever :geek

Thanks for this Graechan - a quick play with a simple result. Will check out masks later.
