New picture tubes – Gimp Trims 3

The first Gimp trims were released 13 years ago! But these are slightly different.

You can create delicate ribbons in any length and any shape you want. Use your cursor to draw your ribbons freely, or you can use the VectorTube script to place them along a precise path. Since these ribbons are a little wide, make sure you use a large enough shape and avoid tiny corners and curves.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what kind of trim you would like to see as picture tubes (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!) The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).

For samplers, I created two frames for you. Each one is made from running the VectorTube script twice on a simple shape. One trim is full size while the inside trim is half-size for an interesting effect.

New Tubes – Ruffle Trims

This set of picture tubes will allow you to decorate any vector shape, so you can create frames, borders or freehand trimming.

You get a total of 30 tubes. For each of the 10 colors, you get a double edge trim that will place in the center of the vector path, but also two others that will place on each side of the path, allowing you to add stitching along one side.

Since Halloween is coming soon, you might have some trick-or-treating photos of events, parties, or costumes. And if you don't celebrate Halloween, the white and black frames can also be quite elegant in a project for any other theme.

Each frame is about 3000 pixels wide, so you can resize them down as needed for your particular project.
