Note that the same thing can be accomplished by setting your FG color to red, setting the Mode of the paintbrush to "Subtract", and painting on the layer (rather than using the eraser). > To be even faster I'd love to have a batch file for gimp, which does all > these preparing steps for me for any number of .jpg files and saves them as > .xcf files.

Since it is pretty much a pain to describe GIMP batch processing on Windows (owing to Windows weak command line functionality), I just wrote a script which adds a "Redeye Removal Backdrop" command to your Layer Menu. This command preps your layer as described and, since you need to open every file individually anyway, shouldn't be too difficult. You can assign the script to keystroke to make things easier (or just use either the Subtract paintbrush technique, or the GIMP's Red-eye Removal Filter under "Filters->Enhance"). http://flashingtwelve.brickfilms.com/GIMP/Scripts/Temp/sg-redeye-removal-backdrop.scm _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
