Magic Gate Driver Ms Pro Duo Magic Gate?

imagery with Gimp using: Filters / Distorts

After reading the discovery of extrasolar planet "Gliese 581 g", which apparently could be habitable, I remembered a tutorial I read about how to make an imaginary planet with gimp .

The report they tutorial is here.

was so determined to make one from the following picture:

In my work I applied some variants of the advice in the tutorial above.
The road was as follows:

1 - Locate the picture.

I present some of the tips read:
- The image must be a clear marking of the horizon, where note the difference in land or sea, sky.
- In the space of the horizon, we must try to see buildings, or objects that scroll across the horizon.
- At the top is good to have few details. It is important to ensure that details are concentrated mainly in the central part of the image.
- Another point to consider is that the corners of the image coincide with each other.
- It is important that both ends of the image does not have much difference in tone.

2-Resize and rotate the image.

Resize: Image / Scale Image
I changed the parameters of height and width, to make it a perfect square. I activated the cubic interpolation. The image was distorted.
















Then rotate 180 ยบ: Image / Transform / Rotate 180 degrees.

3-Apply the filter




I applied a distortion polar coordinate type: Filters / Distorts / Coord. polar.
















4-I added, with the fill tool, a background the same color as the sky.
5-copied and pasted into another layer the upper half of the image. Rote and I placed at the bottom.
6 - Then copy , with the free selection tool, the buildings of the image. The hit and rotate in two different layers, located on both sides (right and left).
                                                       
This was made the imaginary world that can be seen at the beginning of this post.
What is relevant for this task is being able to exercise "filters distortions."

I leave this picture that I gave the name "my little island", the other picture I could work similarly.

You can see that ... with Gimp, dreaming does not cost much ... Until next

learning.

1) First open Inkscape and type your text.
















2) Then select it and let Path / Object to Path . In this step we have become a way.


3) Then draw the perspective we want to have the text with the tool to draw Bezier curves . This step is important to address and sense of line is drawn and that this depends on the perspective that has the text.
I followed the following order:
































4) After select the text first, then the stroke and click on Extensions / Edit Trip / Outlook.
















5) Then text appears in the offing.

















6) Then we clear the line we draw.

To figure that started this post I drew a star with the values \u200b\u200bshown in the picture below.
Next the copied and pasted several times. I changed the colors, the resulting star. After the above I placed a red background, overlapping. Finally I placed the text in perspective.

Then they can observe other environment painted in Gimp with mixing tool.
Greetings until next post.

Paper Texas Drivers License Template

perspective following a route (or path)

To draw a t ext a route (or path) , the first thing we have to do is open the Gimp and go to "File / New ".


Then return to the toolbox, we seek "Path tool" and we click on it.

then draw the path you want and for that reason we made different click on the image editing window. Thus, the strokes are generated.





After placing the cursor on the line and holding the left button, so we can adjust the curvature of it.

When we get the desired route click "Draw Route ".




then opens a new window where you can adjust the line size.

If we want to line the route is not place you see "line size 0.

After pressing the" Stroke ", lower right corner. We already have the path made.





Now we write the text. To do this we click on the "Text Tool " and write your text.
Then click on the button "Text following a path"





The text follows the path created above.







Then let "Dialogues / Pathways" . Click on "Routes"






box opens dialogue of Routes.







Right-click on the "Route we have created" and a popup menu. In that menu choose "Path to Selection"




can be observed that the text is selected.


Now, without touching anything, let "Layer / New Layer" . This will create a new layer.

proceed

to give color to the text.
To do this we click on the "Mesh Tool" . With this tool you click on a degraded area of \u200b\u200bthe image editing window. We hold and drag gradient to text.



To clear black text write initially closed in the layers window, the darling of the layer.



The background gradient that appears in the image that started this post was made in fourth layer. locate it deep and mezcha tool "I painted.

Then chose the area where the text had been written (with the selection tool). I went to "Picture" and clicked on "Trim to Selection"

To make this task consulted this site who in turn recommended this Tutorial and this page.

I hope the explanations will be useful to those who need them. Greetings
