Gimp Tutorial: Glowing Light Strokes

[iwillpwnyoulikeshit]

you did it wrong btw..

[fiffy12345]

Can the glow stroke you made in GIMP be saved as a picture? Then can be used in Photoscape 3.5 for editing?

[vannesalovesyou389]

Does it cause virius??

[FlashCS5Beginner]

@vannesalovesyou389 Why would the GIMP cause a virus?

[fiffy12345]

@vannesalovesyou389 No, it does not. And yeah, @FlashCS5Beginner is right;l why would it give a virus?

[fiffy12345]

@vannesalovesyou389 No. If you use Internet Explorer 9, it will tell if it is safe or not.

[jiawern]

can i draw something using paintbrush then make it glow?

[windowsinfo]

No, i don´t think so. I think you have to use the path tool to make it work.

[JackRabbit894]

@windowsinfo Actually, you can... I just did it. What you do is draw with your Paintbrush on a new layer, use the fuzzy select tool to select what you drew, and then continue with the filters. It actually works. :D

[HorschtMo]

@jiawern take a solid backround and use the rubber as if u were painting(very very thin brush). then right klick on youre layer and choose alphachannel to selection, then go to selection and choose selection to path. this might not be the best method but its how you can get a path from something you are painting

[theyacstacommish]

@jiawern i actually think you can u just need to follow these steps

1. New Layer

2. Draw the line

3. Add the outer glow

*The key is that it has to be a new layer before u start drawing

[Tweetyeti]

@jiawern Actually, you can. Using white, draw whatever you want ( on a new, transparent layer of course). Then select the "Select by color tool", which is located at the top right hand corner of your tools box. Use this tool to select your drawing. You may need to remove the background layer, or simply take away its visibility. Now that you have your drawing selected, simply go to Filters>Alpha to logo>Neon. Choose your color, press OK, and VOILA! :D

[YusufDanial]

@jiawern yes you can

[Searons]

@jiawern there is, i dont rly think u care about it this long after but if u do just send me a msg and i'll explain

[tutforbeginners]
