Gorgeous Emmi. I have a shot of a fly from 2011 I love...but I put my signature on. Do you think I should post it?
Pretty colors! L really like both.
How did you add your signature? I've been really wanting to use my own handwriting and cannot figure out how.

Ikarusthefirst In reply to empellina [2015-07-05 18:30:09 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, Maryellen!
Sure! Why not?
I wrote my sign on a paper and scanned it with high contrast black&white. Then I edited it (to remove the fringed edges, to make it look more 'smooth'), made the background transparent, copied it and inverted the colour of the copy (so I had a white and a black sign). Then I put the white over the black one andΒ  moved it a bit so that the black looks like a shadow of the white one. That's it. And now I can add my sign as a new layer to each photo.

I was playing around all day, thinking it was similiar to do that. I just couldn't do it, yet.
It's more complicated than I thought.
But thank you...I will keep working at it. I'm not that great at PS or any of those.
And you're welcome. Thank you for this information also.

Ikarusthefirst In reply to empellina [2015-07-06 11:14:32 +0000 UTC]

Really no problem! Just keep on trying and I'm sure you'll make it!
I use Gimp for that, if you have questions feel free to ask. c:

empellina In reply to Ikarusthefirst [2015-07-06 11:54:23 +0000 UTC]

I'm more used to GIMP than anything else. The high contrast scan will probably be my problem. I tried taking a pic of my signature on white paper, but even that I couldn't figure out how to make transparent without erasing my signature. I'm such a goofball with editing programs.Β

Ikarusthefirst In reply to empellina [2015-07-06 14:59:28 +0000 UTC]

You can photograph your signature as well. You have to add alpha transparency to the image (docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-laye… ), then you can use the colour select tool and select the white background (docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tool-by-… ). Remove the selection and only your sign should be visible with a transparent background. I hope the links may help you. c:

Hi Emmi. I've been trying to do with you said about my signature, and even looking at the links, but my GIMP doesn't have the options you are mentioning. It's pretty old...like 6-7 years since I downloaded it. Do you think I should delete and download a new copy? It's been really frustrating. Crazy.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Ikarusthefirst In reply to empellina [2015-07-22 14:51:24 +0000 UTC]

Hey Maryellen! Β 
Yes I think it's a good idea to download the new version, they improved a lot in the last years.
www.gimp.org/downloads/

And if you still have trouble with the watermark, you can upload your signature to sta.sh and send me the link and I'll make it for you. But just if you like. c: I think it won't take too long.

empellina In reply to Ikarusthefirst [2015-07-23 20:47:08 +0000 UTC]

Emmi...the version here is 2.8.14 and yours is 2.9.1. I heard 2.9.1 can be buggy? Is that why you gave me the link to 2.8.14? I haven't done it yet...but I've uninstalled the one I had.
Let me know when you're around, OK? I"m going to wait to install. Β

Ikarusthefirst In reply to empellina [2015-07-23 21:13:56 +0000 UTC]

Hi! Β 
Yes I'm on 2.9.1, it's the testing version still under development and may be unstable. I use Linux so I'm always interested in using new features, testing software which is still under development and although in reporting bugs if I find some. The 2.8.14 is the stable version for productive use. I would strongly recommend you to use the stable version!

Thank you Emmi, you too!
I was playing on GIMP, trying to put the sig on a pic. I think I finally figured it out, but ran out of time.
I'll have to note you soon. I have some questions.

I may take you up on that. I took the picture of it...and even though the paper was white, it came out sort of...gray. Do you think that will cause a problem?
I will definitely update my GIMP. It's crazy I never thought of it before.
Do I have to uninstall my old? I wonder if they write over it.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Ikarusthefirst In reply to empellina [2015-07-22 15:20:51 +0000 UTC]

If the sign is good and sharp visible it should be no problem if the background is slightly gray.
I think it's better to uninstall the old version at first and then install the new one because of your outdated version it may cause problems if you 'only' update it.

I'm going to upload my sig to sta.sh and you tell me if it's sharp enough. Usually a problem for me.
I will do as you say with GIMP. Thanks.
