Hello,
I don't know if there is such a tool but there is a plugin that I found in an expected location (text formation) that may help giving objects a metallic look: Creative Text Pro. Give it a try, it has other textures as well.

Thanks for the information. I just have to be patient and wait. I am always giving my students things to cut around and I use the dashed lines as a guide.

Hello,
Is there a tool or plugin that works like the outline plugin but instead of drawing solid lines it draws dashed lines?
-
Every thing looks great. Even the name is interesting, it makes me think of red nail varnish. 🙃

Thanks MJW and Reptillian. Both methods are great. If one day there is a script, I will be happy to use it.

To do exactly what the author of the blog did, you'd need to invert the channels. I actually checked, here's the check:
You can tell that from the top left picture of each group are inverted. There may also be some control involved into each channels.
It's hard to see from the blue side, but you can tell that the pictures for other channels other than red don't have to be the same.
Yes, at first I thought the images were the negatives of pictures and I could not blend them correctly till MJW mentioned channel extractions and the use of additive mode. I find it interesting that there are several methods of doing this effect.
I used your Extract Channel plugin for this image.

It can be done fairly easily without a special plugin.
- Convert the original image to black and white.
- Run Ed Henry's Extract Channel plugin. Set the channel to Red, and uncheck the Grayscale checkbox. The image will now be red.
- Add a layer, and set its Blend Mode to Additive.
- Fill the layer with some random black and white pattern. For example, run Clouds, perhaps followed by Dents or Crystalize.
- Run Extract Channel, this time setting the Channel to Blue.
- Add another layer, and set its Blend Mode to Additive.
- Fill the layer with some random black and white pattern.
- Run Extract Channel, this time setting the Channel to Green.
- Flatten the image.
The effect is best when the Green and Blue layers obscure the image in the Red layer.
EDIT: Though it's probably obvious, I should have mentioned that the Blue and Green images don't need to be random patterns -- they can be any black-and-white images, colored by applying Extract Channel. In the original examples, they're other portraits.
Thanks MJW. I followed your instructions. I don't know what the layers modes do but they do what I needed. 😊

I guess it would be possible to write a plugin/G'MIC script which import images, and then combine them per channel.
That would be great, unfortunately, scripting is way out of my capacities. ☺️

I seem to remember @BoltBait writing a plugin to do that.
Have a try and post any questions to the plugin thread.
Hope this helps
Hello AndrewDavid,
Thanks for the tip but I actually need to print the resulting images so the kids can walk around the classroom with a red filter in their hands and take notes.

I found on the net a neat effect that I could use at school with my students. I would like to be able to reproduce it but I don't know the steps and I didn't find a plugin to do this either. As you can see, on the left side, two images have been merged in such a way that when a red filter is placed over them a hidden image will be revealed.
For example, I would like to combine Van Gogh and Sorolla's portraits and make the painter Sorolla appear when a red filter is used.
The combined image will be printed and red cellophane will be used as a filter.
Thanks for the help.

Some time ago I needed an embroidery look on an image. So I used the STITCH plugin as well as a jeans texture. I also tried to give it some volume by selecting different areas and applying the BEVEL plugin to those selections.

I think I will be making posters for my classroom walls with this plugin. Thanks a lot.

I have been exploring some of the plugins and I think you may achieve this with a Polar Transformation distortion.

Sorry, I didn't understand your request. The technique used by Reptilian is very nice.
-
Just add a white layer below your picture and merge them.

MadJik renamed that plugin to SpiroShapes.
Thanks. It's the one I needed.

Hello,
Is the Theta Curves plugin available somewhere? I couldn't find it in the plugin index.

Select the object using Magic Wand then use Outline Selection plugin.
After that you can use Feather Object plugin.
Thanks for the tip. I just tried and it's good enough for my needs.

Hello,
I have a question regarding the outline plugins. When used on a translucent object, the outline is drawn around the edges but it also darkens the inside of the object. Would it be possible to add a feature as to draw the outline without darkening the translucent object?
Thanks.

Hello, have you tried sending the same photo with different exposures or changing very slightly the contrast and lightning? The converter may return you different results.

Hello,
A plugin that can handle counting and alphabetical labelling would be greatly appreciated.
-
If you transform your photo to black and white first and then you use the Color ramp... adjustment plugin, you may obtain something like you want.

Thanks, I have some clipart that needed thicker borders and this is ideal for that task.

This would be very handy for me. I often print images of different sizes in one page so they can latter be cut by the kids at school. I try to use as much as possible the empty spaces on a sheet of paper. @BdR I hope you can bring it to Paint.Net.
