Hello!

Could there be any possible alternatives for GIMP 2.8 like Nik Software's Color Efex? Don't know how difficult it would be to create but to my mind it looks like a bunch of ready made presets with additional tools like doting system that applies, removes or strengthens the effect according to the textures in the image. Anyway, just a thought. Thank you very much for your magnificent work on GIMP!

Vector layers would be great.

It should be fairly straight forward to implement mirroring, but at least for me there are more important things to hack on. If would gladly help you get into the GIMP code if you want to attempt to solve this yourself.

I have downloaded GIMP 2.7 some weeks ago. It has some new interesting features. I like the brush rotation and aspect ratio controls, but I miss something to flip the brush like this:

http://gimp-brainstorm.blogspot.com/2009/04/flip-brush.html

This option flips the brush like a mirror. It is not interesting in symmetrical brushes, but It would be awesome with most of artistic brushes.

I think that programming this feature doesn't need too much time, and It would be very interesting for users.

In other way, It would be awesome allowing "gradient color brushes", where the brush is saved as a grayscale image with alpha channel. This brush is coloriced from the current gradient (like color->map->gradient map). This would allow more realistic brushes but allowing color variations (for example, a flame, where You can use different shades of yellow).

I think that my first suggestion is more important and easy to program.

Sorry if my English is bad. Also, I don't know if "gradient map" exist, because I have GIMP in Spanish, and I can't change it to English and look this menu entry.

Thanks for develop GIMP.

The current plan is to get serious about 16bit support in GIMP 2.10. The preparations we've had in this area in GIMP 2.6 and GIMP 2.8 has taught us what to expect and how to deal with it.
