This tutorial is so easy, I won't even do screenshots! :l:

If you haven't seen Kytayle's Pixel Stretch sig tutorial, you can view it here: http://www.gimptalk....?a=v&t=762&f=14

His tutorial discusses creating an entire pixel-stretch sig. Mine only addresses a very easy way to create/apply the pixel stretch, without the actual "stretching" part. Please review his steps for selecting the area you want to "stretch".

Once you've got the area, go to the Script-FU menu | Selection | To Pattern

Give it a name and let GIMP do the rest. It will automatically save the area as a pattern and refresh your patterns you it's ready to use!

Now apply the newly created pattern to a new layer and there you have the "stretch" without the "stretch." :w: You can either keep your pattern when you're finished or delete it. It's entirely up to you.

Sorry if this has already been covered before. I checked but couldn't find it.

Enjoy!

heh, nice observing job, Art! ^^. I based my tutorial on a Photoshop tutorial that goes by the 'stretching' method, all all this time there was a better (but equal in time almost) way to do it. Pixel Pattern Stretch ^^;

Good job man :l:

Where do you get stuck? It doesn't get any easier than the method described in this tutorial.

Sorry took so long, here's my result:


I might've messed it up... But thats kinda why i had to play with it to get it right. And i think this was a bad render for that. Not enough color. But oh, well...

I must be doing something wrong.... I tried this, but it came out with just as much of a stretched look as before....
