Flag waving
July 22, 2009 - 17:15 — Themroc
This little plugin makes an animation that looks like a flag fluttering
in the wind from any given (single layer) image. This one requires gimp with perl-support.

What is Perl?
Perl is a programming
Perl is a programming language.
If you're using a platform where it is usable within GIMP, you probably already have it installed. On other platforms, it will be considerably harder.

Step-by-step
Ok, lets try it... This should work for Debian and derivates (like Ubuntu):
1. Open a terminal window (a.k.a. "terminal emulator", something like konsole, xterm, eterm, ...)
2. Type
su -
3. Enter root password
4. Type
apt-get install wget libgimp-perl p7zip-full
exit
cd /tmp
wget http://69b.org/web69/dl/gimp-flag-waving.7z
cd
ls -d .gimp*
Now you should see a list of gimp versions that you have used. The highest Number is what you need:
5. Type
cd .gimp-x.y/plug-ins (where x.y is to be replaced by your version)
7z e /tmp/gimp-flag-waving.7z
chmod a+x flag-waving
6. If gimp is already running, stop it.
7. Start gimp
8. Open an image
9. Click Filters/Animation/Flag waving...
Hope That Helps!
