How it compares to Gimp? I use this tool to do various processing (mainly photomontages), and there is a lot of filters, so, what is added by imageplay?

- loomi 11y agoGimp is user friendly image editing software. It hides away as many as possible of the gory details. Imageplay on the other hand is there to prototype and learn about image processing. You can build complex pipelines with basic image manipulation algorithms. As all code is available you can later on use your own design algorithm in your projects. Also you can directly stream from the WebCam to this pipeline, something Gimp can not. (-,
- rer0tsaz 11y agoIf you want gory details, try G'MIC[1]. It has plugins for GIMP and Krita, an online version[2], a ridiculous number of filters[3] and features, and a command language. On the other hand, it makes things like imagemagick look simple and user friendly. My favorite quote from the "Beginner's Cookbook": > The image of a finger or a brush pushing along paint immediately brings to mind tensor fields, produced by -diffusiontensors, which directs asymmetrical smoothing kernels in the -smooth command to diffuse noise parallel to detected edges [1] http://gmic.eu/ http://gmic.eu/ [2] https://gmicol.greyc.fr/ https://gmicol.greyc.fr/ [3] http://gmic.eu/gimp_filters.txt http://gmic.eu/gimp_filters.txt
- loomi 11y agoI was not aware of G'MIC. We could try to implement a G'MIC process which gives access to this filters. Does G'MIC also provide a ImagePlay like interface?
