Those are very nice, Dinasset. I could not get anything recognizable with it, probably need a more suitable image. Soooooo, I played with G'mic/Artistic/Fractalize.

playing with parameters and modes you can get many different outcomes

Thank you, Dinasset. I did play with it some more and receive better results. Still not expert! I was too focused on using the filter correctly that I forgot about playing with the blend layers afterward.

by playing with the parameters (then with the layers) you can really obtain interesting outcomes

Thanks Dinasset for your help.
I put the update178 file in the appdata\roaming\gmic lib but it will not work.
It is strange but I have only one file in this lib and it is "gimp_update.lock".
I have searched for other lib with gmic files but not find anyone.
Is it possible that I have gmic in another lib???
I am also a bit confused because I can see that your update file is about 2,5MB but
my update file is only 561kB. Can I for some reason have wrong update file?
Maybe you have an answer.
Many thanks for your help

When I open Gmic I have the list of filters and in the top there is written 360 filters.
Still when I have choosen the internet button I have no cacess to the server and if I
not choose the internet button and click at the update button nothing happens. No message and nothting.
I have restarted Gimp if this was neccessary but it will not help

in G'MIC go to Frame, Frame[fuzzy], set % to 10 on both Horizontal and Vertical, click on the color, set opacity to 0, run

if you get an outcome with a transparent frame, you have the last update running

my outcome

(load it to see the transparency)

Hello again,
Yes I will have a transparent frame! Will this meens that I have the latest update???
But I have read somewhere that the filters now are in different places. Can it be possible
that I only have filters from one location and not the other. For instance I am missing "Dream smoothing filters".

dream smoothing is located in Artistic
- Dream smoothing (in '/Artistic/')-
if you search
