Render in GIMP
The process of creating an image from a 2D or 3D model is known as rendering. The resulting image is known as a
render. The “Render” group filters in GIMP build patterns from scratch. They often remove anything previously in the
layer.
To render an image with GIMP, perform the following:
Ð ÐClick on Tools → Paths.
Ð ÐFor better precision, zoom in.
ÐClick around the image you want to render. The points on which you click are called “Anchors”.
Ð
Ð ÐNext, follow the steps given in the video How to Easily Render Pictures on GIMP : Digital Imaging -

Decor Filters
These filters are Script-Fu scripts that are image-dependent. They add attractive borders to images and some of them
add nice special effects. Let us learn to add a border around an image in Gimp.
ÐSelect Filters → Decor → Add Border from the menu.
Ð
Ð ÐAdd the X-size border (left and right edge)
Ð ÐAdd the Y size of the border (top and bottom margin).
Ð ÐChange the colour of the border
Ð ÐChange the colour’s Delta Value as per your requirement.

3.7 WORKING WITH LAYERS
Transparent sheets are piled on top of one another to create layers, which allow
for the editing of one object without impacting the other objects in the image. We
can modify layers, delete layers, move levels around, and create new layers. The
background layer is the only layer that exists when we create a new image in GIMP.
In a file, numerous layers can be added. The background layer is then put on top of
them all. You can edit each layer independently. All layers are shown in the Layers
palette. Additionally, it contains controls for adding new layers and removing old
ones.
Layers at the top of the layer stack will show up in the image’s foreground, and
layers at the bottom make up the background. Let us understand the various options
available in the Layer menu.
