G'MIC has been made available as an easy-to-use plug-in for
GIMP.
It extends this retouching software capabilities by offering a large number of pre-defined image filters and effects.
Of course, this plug-in is highly customizable and it is possible to dynamically add your custom
G'MIC-written
filters in it.
Here you will find pre-compiled binaries of the plug-in for common architectures. Pick one archive below, unzip all its content
into your
GIMP plug-in directory, and you're done.
The
G'MIC plug-in should be then available from the
Filters/G'MIC.. menu entry.
- On Unix, the plug-in directory is usually located at $HOME/.gimp-2.x/plug-ins/.
The plug-in requires these libraries installed on your system : libfftw, libpng, zlib.
Use your package manager to fit these dependancies.
- On Windows, the plug-in directory is usually located at C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.x\lib\gimp\2.0\plugins\.
Required libraries files are provided in the archive for Windows.
Note : This plug-in is the logical sequel of our previous
GREYCstoration software,
dedicated to image denoising and regularization.
Actually,
G'MIC provides all the
GREYCstoration
features (through the filter entries
Enhancement/Anisotropic smoothing and
Patch-based smoothing), but also much more.
As the development of the
GREYCstoration software has been
discontinued, we highly encourage former users to switch to
G'MIC.
