For example press 'K' and you will be offered but a single choice - 'khaki'. You can now either select one of these colours or you can refine your selection by pressing one or more additional letters. A menu of colour names, all with that first letter will probably appear. Press the first letter of that name and wait a few seconds. Instead of entering a code in this box, think about the name of the colour you want. If you, like me, have never entered a colour code in hex you probably won't know about this.
When you go to change either the foreground or background colours in gimp, there is a useful hidden feature of the dialogue box that pops up. Here is something I discovered on deviantArt. Having said all that, it is still worth a look. Also the 'drop-shadow' effect can produce a weird moat-effect. For example the 'Bevel & Emboss' feature appears to be mutually exclusive with a number of others. It just doesn't appear to work quite the same though. It even appears to have the same options as PS. I don't know how long the Gimp has had its own version as who looks in script-fu if you don't have anything extra in there? Anyway, it is and it is called 'layer effects'. For those that don't know, in photoshop layer styles allow you to apply 1 or more effects to a layer all at once. Gimp has its own version of layer styles. Something I discovered by accident while looking through the menus. I will be skipping the first post as that was just the original introduction to the series. Nevertheless (yes it is all one word in English), I am going to attempt to copy the contents of the original thread (in the original order) here for anyone who might find it useful.
Unfortunately there is something in the pages that were published for the last few months of the life of those boards that puts a big black lump that covers the top half of the screen. Rather than let this series just vanish into the ether, I saved the page that held it. Towards the end of the series, we received notification that those boards were going to close. Back in 2016 I did a series of posts about the Gimp image editing program on the final BSN to feature NwN.
