Download Blur & Shadow plugin:


2- RSS Lightsaber (LSE) v0.9

 

RSS Lightsaber (or LSE) is a simple script for creating lightsaber effect in picture. The script base on my own algorithm.
Features:

  • Fast script’s execution.
  • Independent setting for blur size of the lightsaber’s core and glow around saber.
  • Some features to provide correct effects on extra large photos (above 20 Mp).

 

 


3- Colour Match

 

 

Easily map colours from a source colour to a target colour. Very effective for matching skin tones across images or between people.

Relatively quick (but not earth shattering). It doesn’t work with grayscale or indexed images. Has preview, works with selections and layers, etc. Very, easy to use, and quite useful for portraits or recolouring graphics.

f you have an x86_64 version of GIMP 2.7 on linux, bunzip2 and move the colour-match file to your plugin directory:
bunzip2 colour-match.bz2
chmod 700 colour-match (Make it executable)
mv colour-match ~/.gimp-2.7/plug-ins/colour-match

To build it type: gimptool-2.0 --install colour-match.c
You will need libgimp-dev, and libgtk2.0-dev packages if you didn’t build GIMP from source.

Download Links :

colour-match.c
colour-match.bz2
