Time Narration
00:23 Welcome to Meet The GIMP.
00:25 My name is Rolf steinort and I am recording this in Bremen, Northen Germany.
00:30 I got an e-mail from Jeson in New York and he just stopped the show about Triptychs, to find a different way of doing it, before I started doing triptychs.
00:45 And he found a different way with using layer mask.
00:50 And I think I should show you that in this tutorial.
00:57 I can't show you the image which Jeson used for doing Triptychs because he used images which are not freely available, so I can't use them.
01:10 Using layer mask for doing Triptychs is very easy and I have modified his concept a bit about using a layer mask.
01:21 I wonder why I didn't have that idea.
01:25 And I want to do a triptych with these three shots here.
01:31 I want to have this image on the left side, this 2nd one in the middle and this one on the right side.
01:42 I want to change these square frames to something which suits this image.
01:49 We will see how this works out.
01:53 Now I can start making the Triptychs with these images here and I press tab to bring my toolbox window into the foreground.
02:05 Click on File and select New to create a new image and we get the default value of width as 3400 and 1200 for height.
02:19 So I have three images of 1000 by 1000 and 100 pixels border between them.
02:31 Let's see how that works out.
02:36 For getting this image into the new image, I drag the 'Background' layer of this image from toolbox to my new image here and you get here 'Background copy'.
02:54 This was my left most image, so I rename it as "left" and I press return/Enter after typing.
03:04 So this image should be on the left side.
03:08 And the next image should be on right side, so I pull the image in the same way and name it accordingly "right".
03:32 And this is the third image and this will become my central window, so I pull this image over to the new image and rename this layer as "center".
03:49 I make the "right" and "central" layers invisible and now I want to scale the "left" layer a bit down and when I zoom down a bit to say 10%, you can see the borders of this layer and now the full frame of the image can be seen.
04:16 And now I select the Move tool so that I can move this image and adjust a bit.
04:26 The image is not moving because I have selected the center layer.
04:33 So, I select the left layer and move it and position the bottle.
04:39 I want to scale down this layer a bit, so I select the Scale tool from the toolbox and go to the tool info. and click on aspect ratio and in Preview I choose the Image option.
04:59 And now, I click into the layer, and pull the info window aside and reduce it from the corner.
05:09 I think more or bit less.
05:15 I can grab this image and I can position it where I want to and I think I should have put some guidelines on here.
05:30 So, I zoom into the image by 100% and go to the top left corner.
05:38 Now I pull the rulers down here for guidelines.
05:43 I wondered why I couldn’t move a ruler and here is an option Move the active layer. By selecting it I can move the active layer.
06:01 It's a nice option to protect the layers and I select the size of the frame as 100 on the right side and I go down and I set it 1100 and on right side I set it as 1100.
06:31 This is the frame for my image.
06:34 Shift + Ctrl + E gives me the whole image and now I select the active layer option.
06:43 And in Zoom Ratio, I select 10%.
06:48 I think, I should select 13% and that's enough.
06:59 I click on Scale tool and keep the aspect ratio and pull this Scale window out of the frame.
07:10 Now I scale this image.
07:14 Now I have the frame to look where I want to place this image.
07:21 And I think I should make it a bit smaller because I want to have the shades of glass here, in the image.
07:40 Now I click on Scale and I get my scaled image.
07:49 For getting the frame around the image I just add a layer mask.
08:01 And I make my layer mask black i.e full transparency.
08:07 And just click on add.
08:13 So now i select a rectangle inside the borders here and fill the rectangle with white.
08:23 I pull the white colour over here and you can see that the bottle becomes visible and for completing the frame here, I just zoom into it.
08:36 And I'll paint with white with irregular strokes on the layer mask.
08:44 To do that I select the brush tool, go to the dialog here and I select here a soft brush for painting.
09:01 Before painting I have to de-select my selection by pressing Shift + Ctrl + A, and now I can start painting with white.
09:13 White is selected
09:16 Now I paint with white here around and you see while I am painting white on the layer mask, I am revealing the image below.
09:28 And the painting is irregular but it's ok.
09:40 Now I am selecting a different brush and I think this is better.
09:49 I get a fuzzy corner.
09:52 I should zoom into the image 100% so that you can see it.
10:04 I get kind of the fuzzy border here and I will make it a bit more fuzzy in a moment by painting twice above it.
10:16 And now you can see that the border is getting a little bit more irregular.
10:22 Perhaps this is not the right tool here but you can use different tools and now I want to sharpen in this image
10:35 You can check out that I am still working in the layer mask.
10:41 You can check it here.
10:43 The layer mask is selected with white here.
10:47 So click on Filters, Blur, Gaussian blur and i select high blur count here and I think thats ok.
11:03 And now i have really fuzzy border here around.
11:10 So lets look at the full image. Shift + Ctrl + E
11:17 I have the 1st part of my tryptych and I do the others in the same way.
11:26 I have finished with the other images and you can see here i have over painted over the rulers and i can do that here too.
11:39 Now i want to remove the rulers and new way of doing that is to go to the image, Image Guides and here i can remove all guides.
11:54 And i found out that i can do a new guide here and select the position numerically.
12:03 Its wonderful to have this options.
12:08 The GIMP has so many options that you cant remember all of them.
12:14 Go to View and de-select layer Boundry.
12:18 I want to have this bottle a bit more up into the corner.
12:23 I think there is bit more space here and little bit less here.
12:30 I think the right and the center image are here at the right corner.
12:36 But I think this bottel should go up there.
12:41 So i'll go out of full screen mode
12:45 I de-select the center and the right layer and concentrate on the left layer.
12:54 Now I need the rulers for guidance.
12:58 So click on Image, Guides, New guide and type in Horizontal position 100.
13:10 Again go to Image, Guides, New guide and select vertical position as 100.
13:20 And now I select my move tool. Go to the options, select move the active layer and i just move this up here.
13:37 I think I have made a mistake so I undo the step by pressing Ctrl + z. and here you can see that the mask is selected.
13:49 I want to move the layer.
13:51 So now i select the image and i just pull it up and the mask moves with it.
13:58 I found no way to lock the mask but I can correct that.
14:04 I select the layer mask and pull the layer mask back to my corner here.
14:13 I think this looks better now.
14:19 And now this image is finished with the help from Jeson in New York.
14:28 No this image isn't finished.
14:32 The thing i normally dont forget but i always forget when i am recording because i have to think about such lot of other things than just making my image.
14:47 I have again forgotten to save it.
14:56 Save it as jaegermeister.xcf, xcf contains all the layer information and i'll cut out all the stuff about rescaling for the web. .
15:08 You'll find a link to this file in the show notes at meetthegimp@org and if you want to leave a comment then please do that.
15:18 This is Hemant Waidande dubbing for the Spoken Tutorial Project.
