i see above comments about these .gmic files.
So I searched for *.gmic and nothing showed up.
I expected it to at least have one .gmic file
I am so confused. how does it know where to go to get update file from internet...I expect there's a setting somewhere?

Mine shows fine; using a Chromium variant browser (Iron). Not sure why you are not seeing the links in FireFox. Strange indeed.

@trandoductin : if for any reason, the filter update does not work for you, you can do it manually, by saving this file :

http://gmic.eu/gimp_update1620.gmic

and put it into your %APPDATA% folder (on Win7, it's usually C:\Users\yourlogin\AppData\Roaming\ if I remember well).
This is basically what the update button does in the plug-in.

thanks but i don't see an AppData/Roaming/ folder
let me search and see maybe something will show up
i see it now it was a hidden folder

so i copied the file into Roaming and restarted Gimp and Gimp still says 431 available filters instead of 433.

Thanks David. I imagine this would be great for color correcting a photo as well.

Cool stuff.

I really liked the effect.
Source image is a yellow flower.
The reference image is an old truck.
The result is a flower in colors of the old truck.

Thanks
Doron.

great filter but each time disappear
my test (using a fractal)

Marcello,
with Gimp closed go to (user)/AppData/Roaming and remove (move to another folder) the file
update1610.gmic
restart Gimp
refresh GMIC filters
it will recreate that file and remember also the new ones...

I really don't know why some people must refresh every time.
I've just tested with 1.6.1.0, on Windows and Ubuntu, I just hit the Refresh button one time and the new filters stay here.
I don't have any explanations.. Do you use a portable version of GIMP or something special ?

See my post here David. I believe it has to do with folks that were using the Beta version prior. The name for the .gmic file changed but since both had similar names, G'MIC was having a conniption.

no special version of GIMP
windows vista 32
but I will follow the instructions of Dinasset

Okay so this is what I did,
I uninstalled GIMP and uninstalled GMIC
Then reinstalled Gimp 2.8.14
and reinstalled Gmic from http://gmic.eu/
And now whenever I click GMIC inside GIMP I have 0 available filters.
I have to click on refresh from internet to get 433. but at least it's showing 433 (yeh).
But i click refresh again it gives me the patially failed error message.
Anytime i click on GMIC inside GIMP I have to click on refresh once to get the filters.

I can live with that for now I guess

very strange behaviour

I am excited to try this out now that I have the filter available.
I imagine it would be better than Sample Colorize.
so excited.

If you go to your temp directory and delete all .gmic files and then open GIMP and G'MIC, it should stay Tran.

These files should be under C:\Users\{your user name]\AppData\Roaming

yep that did it the filters stay now,
still shows an error when i click on refresh though (not too worried since i see 433 available).

That's the correct number Tran.

I had the beta version prior and i had no problems after refreshing the first time.
Is it possible you guys only used the zip update and replaced only the executable?

I used the executable G'MIC setup file.

It's working! Thank you Dinasset and BUONA PASQUA!

Glad to know it worked, Marcello.
Buona Pasqua anche a te!
