Path Tool Of GIMP

When I was working on the Demon Trio – Slice project, I had shifted from working in GIMP to Photoshop along the workflow at the time when I wanted to create flat color layer. That was because, I could not find a Polygon Select tool in GIMP. After some poking around at some GIMP forums, mailing lists, and the program itself, I found that we can do a polygon select in GIMP.

Here is a video that walks through the process of using Path tool in GIMP to have a similar approach as you would do with a Polygon select tool in Adobe Photoshop.

    Gimp 2.6 now updated its Free Select Tool to act like Photoshop Polygon select tool. Very nice…

    Yes, GIMP 2.6 has it.

    I am just waiting for it to come into Ubuntu repositories, though I have used it on my Windows boot and am pretty excited about it. Yup, very nice. :)
