At 1:08 when you deleted the boxes from left to right.. what short-cut key did you use, or what tool? I'm just new. XD

[GIMPtricks]

@Junkpunker21 Ctrl +Z

Short keys for undo.

[FluffyDustBunni]

Very useful & easy to do when you explain it. Thank you~!

[Slashdeath97]

LOL scanlines "toot" =P

[Technoguy3]

What are scanlines and what are they for???

[1nsanityy]

The thicker i make the circle brush the thicker the lines are?

[GIMPtricks]

@1nsanityy You're better off to use a 1 pixel brush with the pencil tool and add more pixels to the sides of the line.

[Bullseye3D]

sounds like a dutch accent am i right?

[GIMPtricks]

@Bullseye3D

Ja. :)

[Bullseye3D]

@GIMPtricks Echt bedankt, khad het net nodig voor mijn website template maar ik heb het wel in 30 x30 gedaan omdat de scanlines anders veel te klein zijn en ook een motion blur omdat het anders te scherp is.

[GIMPtricks]

@Bullseye3D

Klinkt alsof het er goed uit ziet.

Ben je nog bij die vriendin van dat GIMP filmpje? Vond ik zo lief!

[Bullseye3D]

@GIMPtricks Jazeker :D al 2 en een half jaar een gelukkig koppel.

kdenk da ze dat filmpje nog nooit gezien heeft omdat ze zich niet zo interesseert in mijn 2D en 3D werk :/

maar het is wel een schatje :)

FAQ video. :)

[speidluvr]

alright, thanks. <3

[speidluvr]

How do you get the scan lines to only appear on one part of the image? Say the brush is in the exact middle of the image, and the rest of it is white. How do you get the scan lines on only the picture and not the white background?

[GIMPtricks]

@speidluvr With the bucket fill tool.

In your tool options set the setting to fill simular areas. (play with the settings a bit. )

[xtalconyaho4]

where do you download diagonal lines? Bigger ones, i mean?

[GIMPtricks]

@xtalconyaho4

I don't know. You could draw them yourself. Start with a bigger images and drw the pixels next to the thin line with black too.

[sabertoothray]

spotted the Dutch accent a mile away haha. nice tut thanx a lot

[jabuci]

Nice trick. What's the difference between pattern and brush? You saved it as a pattern but it appeared among the brushes...

[GIMPtricks]

@jabuci It appeared in the patterns. I have the patterns dialog open in this video.

A pattern is a picture that gets repeated all over your image. It's usually seamless. If you fill and 200x200 pixels image with a pattern with the size of 100x100 pixels it will repeat itself 4 times. But because the patterns is seamless it will look good.

A brush is a shape that you paint in with any colour you choose using your brush tool.

[Icarut]

How do you get that layer thing on the left~? x-x

[GIMPtricks]

@Icarut Go to my channel. There's a FAQ to the left with a link to a video that will tell you how to get your layers back. :)

[NorthEmo]

Thanks a ton mate.

[ZamatoElite]

Great tut!

You have earned my subscription. Keep up the great work.

[turtle787]

Thanks! I've been trying to find out how to do this and now I can.

[lexsa345]

What's a scanline for anyway?

[GIMPtricks]

You can put it over a picture as a pattern. A lot of people really like effect. Depending on what you're making of course. It's used in userbars for instance.

[Ujarbino]
