Hey, I never heard of that one before, but it is described in some detail, with sample images, here: http://tinyurl.com/cdcb8jt I don't think there is an equivalent GIMP brush setting, but I do think that the intended effect can be obtained by adjusting the diameter and "hardness" of a brush. For this it is handy to have a user-created brush (or several of them) in your Brushes tab, and the Brush Editor tab turned on, in your dialogs dock. Here's the brush editor dialog, showing a "fuzzy" hardness setting that should give about the same results in practical use as a brush tweaked with the "flow" setting: http://img580.imageshack.us/img580/7206/brusheditor.jpg Also this shows, IMO, the real "most basic arrangement of GIMP windows that can be used effectively”. Tablet users will want a couple more buttons turned on, and I have several Colors tool buttons enabled because I use the tools in question a lot in photo rework. :o) Steve _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
