Re: [Gimp-user] Golden Text Bump-Mapping in 2.10.22

Hi Simon,

Thank you so much for getting back to me with this.


Even though the tools are located in different places now, with encouragement that it should still work in 
2.10 somehow, without having to add in special plugins, I've gone through the steps several times more, and I 
got it close to what I am looking for one time now.
I just have to try to get it to do it again, and the remember all the steps I did, so I can use them multiple 
times. So far repeating it again is a challenge.


Thank you very much for posting the illustrations and instructions.

Dave Babcock

I suspect that this is still possible, although I did not try it in
quite a long time...

Hm, the "Lighting Effects" should be shipped together with the GIMP. I
just started it on a somewhat currente developers version. And while
there was a crash lurking in the background I suspect that it will work
OK in the 2.10 release.

The curves tool is certainly there and works.

heh, maybe I should start my own youtube career  :)

I hope this helps,
