GIMP Quick Mask In-Depth Tutorial

Followed everything and then lost how to get to the layers tab....its good information but I am not an expert and eventually had to give up...How can you get to the layers tab?????

You provide a wealth of good info, thank you. But as a novice its really hard to keep up with you as you move so fast. To someone still not adept with all the shortcut keys its hard to take in all you are doing. BTW, I do have your Udemy course that I am picking away at. Thankyou for doing that too.

Im following along. The mask turns the image red but I paint and paint (both white and black) and nothing happens. No selection occurs. What can I do ?

Definitely abit confusing but it seems a little easier then photoshop thanks for the info mate

Thanks. By default white reveals, black conceals with layer masks and quick mask selections.

Great Video. very well explained. thanks!

what if i want move whole object not just that shape ? if i copy it whole it move with remains of background even if its masked for some reason

Hey man, as a novice user of photoshop/GIMP, but as someone with web design and development skills, I just want to say this tutorial was amazing for helping me to use GIMP to be able to cut images out for using them in web designs. Watching experienced Photoshop people manipulate images like this always seemed like magic but I definitely learned something very valuable with this video.. Thank you!!!

Pexelis not as easy to search as anticipated. Searching for clues as to a better search query than "this photo over here" is not as easy as anticipated also. Love everything else. TY.

How do you transform a layer but not its mask? Please answer this. I will be great full to you

i tried no marching an heellllllllllllllllllllllllllllp

I wish that I could see your pointer better. I'm having to re-watch this numerous times due to my vision. But, so far, I like it if I can just figure it out better. <3 I'd buy some subscriptions but money is extremely tight right now. I've subscribed here though so I can try and follow the best that I am able to. When I get more money to spare, I'll surely invest in your classes and such.

What's the point to use a mask layer if Quick Mask exists?

Thanks for your GIMP videos, I am learning so much from you. Whenever I try to use quick mask though, GIMP crashes. Are my system specs too low? I have MS Surface Pro 4, Intel Core i5-7300 U CPU @2.60GHz and 8Gb RAM. 64 bit system.

The fuzzy select tool is also great to select complicated areas and you can combine multiple selections by adding them.

so yeah i learned how to copy the selction of an image but i still dont know how to move what i selected to the new project

Love your tutorials ✌

GIMP is some bullshit and I cant figure anything out w it

This is a great video. Anwered a lot of questions. Thanks so much!

i swear way does every tutorial got an other gimp layout with buttons everywhere else

Dude, I was totally unaware there was a quick-mask feature until just now. 😮🤯😆🤷‍♂️

How do you change your UI in Gimp? I do not like the one that it was installed with. Its too hard to read. Your UI has tool icons and it makes sense. Mines a jumble of junk!

Video instructions too difficult to follow. They do not correspond with what I see on my GIMP screen.

the girl was cool and hot though !!!

I am surprised at the low number of Likes and Comments here for a production of this quality. Very many thanks to you!!!

So how would you paste the actual image then?

Thanks for this tutorial! I just downloaded gimp today (v. 2.10.2) and it looks nothing like this. The ui is not as nice. Is it the version you're using that's different or something else?

I've done some of the masking and stuff but now I can't get it back to a normal photo that I can edit haha. Can you or anyone help with this please?

This works better than the path tool for things like female hair tendrils, especially small corn row braids! Thanks for this!

Great video, I learn something new in every one of your videos. In the example with the sunset the red quick mask is really too similar to the colors of the image. In those cases I guess it's good to change the quick mask color to a different color (like blue).

I’m using the same version of Gimp but quick mask causes Gimp to crash. It seems other people are having this problem.

the brush doesn't remove anything on my screen it just stays red

How can i make my tool bar look like yours?

Davies I want to personally thank you for your videos! I feel i have advanced quiet far in photo editing all thanks to learning your videos very early on. You are doing a great thing my friend.

Excellent! thanks.

Thank you!

excellent detail worth watching more than once thank you

Like this comment if the way I said "Quick Mask Tool" at the beginning of this tutorial was weird 😂

I just bought a wacom medium and was up last night until 5am try to figure this out. I wake up to a notification to this video! Thank you so much.

Great video! Has the Quick Mask tool changed from GIMP 2.8 to 2.10? Thanks for posting!
