Gimp Lesson 3 | Changing and Selecting Color

[@awesomebearaudiobooks]

The WaterColor Tool 6:24 works well. It works like paint in real life. The longer you hold a particular color, the more of it is added. If you add too many colors, the paint becomes brown or black (just like dirt in real life is also made of tons of different colors, I suppose) In fact, it is even better than in real life because here you can actually subtract colors as well and make your palette white!

[@jarmstrong2843]

Great set of videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge & expertise.

[@johnkelley9877]

The color pallet kind of reminds me of Inkscape but I can see the Gimp options are more extensive. Thanks for making and sharing this tutorial.

[@doctorpoverty9553]

The best tutorial out there so far. Thank you very much

Eyedroper is awesome!

hey!! which version is this

[@Kelvermans]

Hi there, love your channel! I'm not sure whether it's a temporary thing, yet this movie seems to be corrupted (all lessons show nicely, yet this one doesn't). Kind regards, Guy

[@Hotziggaty]

I could not find the "alpha channel " icon

[@judolanka]

Very impressive I started learning today

[@ChezVee]

Really like your UI layout. How did you add all those extra icons to your tool box on the top left corner?

[@mehrabalinjamam426]

Brown ain't that ugly! :)

[@willyum4u]

Great tutorial. What I can't seem to find is a way to change the opacity of a selected area. Say I have a landscape photo and I use the rectangle select tool. I fill the rectangle with a desired color but I want the area under the rectangle to be somewhat visible. How do I do that?

[@sajidmahmood1]

thanks, waiting your next video.

"K" stands for key in CYMK

[@gms9810]

I don't know if you know this, I'm sure you do, but you can use photoshop palettes.

[@TJFREE]

I've read that, but never really used it. It might be nice to do a video about Gimp and Photoshop cross compatibility.

[@gms9810]

@@TJFREE Well, in my opinion Gimp has PS beat in a lot of ways.

[@hanselxyb5825]

@@gms9810 You mean Gimp is better in someways ? Is that what you are saying ?

I have a black band logo with a white outline on an alpha BG. I am trying to change the color of the white outline in the logo. It seems like something which should be very easy to do, but it isn't. Any help is welcome.

[@TheFlite29]

When I go to the pallet function it appears empty even though I have been using lots of colors. Any tips?

[@class10icserevision44]

[@alem2k_0]

[@myboyjimbo]

Bro i cant draw over my other colors it just shades them into black and white how do i fix this? I need to know quickly because I’m creating a texture pack for someone who’s paying a good amount

[@lalitamalve1475]

U did not tell about the color picker tool according to the name of the video

[@molikaco5816]

I have a problem with my picker color . It doesn't want to pick the color how can i do for resolve it ?

[@hubercats]

I’m a bit confused as to the meaning of foreground and background. When you use the “x” shortcut to switch between them they seem to act more like alternate colors. I.e., they don’t seem to be affecting anything related to “back” or “fore”. On the other hand, if one starts with a new file that has a white background and then draw on it using a black pen, for example, then the meanings of “fore” and “back” seem more intuitive. In this latter mode it seems that the meaning of “foreground” is really more about what color is associated with the tool one is using (e.g., paint brush). Am I understanding this correctly? Thanks! - Jim

[@HuzaifaParachaHim]

Hey Jim, you're kinda right, the thing is, these applications like GIMP or Photoshop they use layers modes to edit pictures, and in that sense, the foreground is the upper layer, and the background is the lower layer, when you change the background colour, for example red, and then use the eraser tool, it is not erasing in red, it's actually erasing the upper layer, and because the lower layer is red, it shows the red colour. It's similar to a canvas in real life, the canvas has a plain background, for instance, brown, and then u start painting above it, but if you were to erase some of the painting it would show the background colour, which is brown. That's how foreground and background colours work, I think. Hope this helps, thanks.

[@daneilers739]

When I type File and then Open, the color is red; how do I change it to white? Thank you.

[@consumerelitist6508]

It would be nice if they had a basic set of palette colors a user could select from.

[@rakshitkant9885]

Hey, I need your help. My pencil is showing many dots and when i press to draw a line it simply creates a few dots please help me. Edit: I did it myself actually I had changed the brush soo lol thanks for ur tutorial anyways XD

[@angelahahn8300]

Am I the only one experiencing a problem with this video? It's not showing anything at this point? I get a smudgy upper pic and just a green background for the rest of the pic. NVM! My bad :/ I tried posting here as the video was going and it gave me all that mess . . . NP all squared away now ;) TYSVM! These videos are really helping me out ;)
