there is also a discussion here....maybe something they say will spark an inspiration?

Hallelujah Cecilia...that cambridge link did it!! thank you xo

could you specify exactly what it was - I didn't understand as i don't use a MAC

I would just like it explained here for others to see

and..YEAH!

Sure..I'll add it here and to the tutorials I think.


Adding G'MIC to Mac OS X 10.6.7

1. Download G'MIC for your OS from specified link.

2. Go to Home Folder users/library/application support/gimp/plug-ins and add gmic to plug-in folder

3. Open GIMP and go to edit /preferences/folders/plug-ins.

In the right hand pane at the top you will see five contol icons. Click the far left icon (sheet of paper with the corner folded down). This will activate the type-in field to the right of the control icons. To the right of the type-in field there is a folder icon. Click and browse your file system and select your equivalent of /Users/akkadia2/Library/Application Support/Gimp/plug-ins In point of actual fact when I did it that was already in that line, so all I had to do was click ok and BINGO!!

Click OK at bottom right of the preferences dialog. Restart GIMP and GMIC should appear in the 'Filters' menu

I had gotten my gmic from lisanet , but don't remember how it got into the right place. I don't remember going into gimp preferences to activate anything.

great! this way if I ever get a MAC i'll know how to install G'mic!

I've been struggling with it for ages!! finally got it right!
