I can't download it. When I click on the Script Fu link, it takes me to another url. What do I do to actually download it?

Right mouse click the link and click "save link as" and save the file in
C:\\Program Files\\GIMP-2.0\\share\\gimp\\2.0\\scripts

edit:
Change the file type from .txt in the windows drop down menu to all files and save as layer_effects.scm

Then restart the gimp and wala there it is........ under the script-fu layer effects context menu.

Oh I got the script to work another way, a more complicated way. I copied the entire script, then pasted it into notepad as a .txt in the script file. Then I changed the file type to .scm. It worked though, cause here is my result!

Nice tutorial, long, but nice. I like that Wink program.

Haven't looked at the tutorial just yet but myself I prefer html tutorials. Less clicking to different pages, and wink is too slow for me it's just alot easier to follow at my own pace (cause I have to re-read things sometimes too lol).

Edit: Finally took time to watch the tutorial lol, nice tutorial but my main complaint about wink is still there. :\\ The text sections of wink is a bit slow but the rest is a bit too fast, kinda have to pause just to see what menu selections you're using lol. I did learn how IWarp works though so I'm happy. ^_^

If you right click and select save link as you will be downloading the liquid_text.swf to your hard drive which you may then watch on or offline through your browser.
