Exact Aligner

This script brings 2 pictures to an exact overlap.
The pictures must be in 2 different layers of the same image.
Get the layer 2 with 50% transparency. This makes both pictures visible in one projection.
You have to tell the script, which 2 points have to overlap. Therefore you stroke a path with a path tool in the image including 4 points. Point 1 will be aligned with point 3 and point 2 will be aligned with point 4.
The points build one path. So you can just click the 4 points consecutively.
More description is in the file.

Maximize Local Contrast

FX-Foundry/Photo/Enhancement/Maximize Local Contrast... Like Stretch Contrast, but instead of using the minimum and maximum pixel values from the entire image, uses the minimum and maximum in the vicinity of a pixel to compute its new value. Takes a while to run, but really brings out textures. Result is a Grain Merge layer that adjusts values of the original image.

This filter operates on the visible image, not on a layer or selection.  read more »

Scale in steps

About

"Scale in steps" resizes an image to the given dimensions in several steps to get a way sharper result compared to resizing in one step. The step size is given in percent and should range between seven and ten percent.

Samples

None of the sample images are sharpened. The original picture was 3000×2000.

Relative color remap

This plug-in changes colors in an image based on the HSV difference between two colors. This is particularly useful for applying color themes to existing images.
It avoids burning out high saturation and value at the expense of compression them somewhat when the difference goes towards higher saturation and value.
Current bugs/missing features include:
Undo does not work.
It can't be used on indexed images, even though it would frequently have enough colors.  read more »

Saturation layer

This script allows you to extract and apply saturation to a layer. When you extract, it adds a new layer with the saturation values (in gray colors). You can then use curves, brightness/contrast or the dodge tool to correct saturation. When you are okay with the adjustements you can put back the saturation by applying it.

It installs itself in < script-fu >/Saturation.

Comments inside the script are in french.
