Yes, reading the manual would help. There is a paint mode called formula and you can define your own shit in it in the settings dialogue under Mode

Here, this will make the fg colour paint ONLY over the bg one:

if( a==bg, fg, a )

and this the other way round which you put in the 2nd dialoge when adding a new formula

if( a==fg, bg, a )

That was not hard, now was it. Learn to read before you bitch around, seriously.

Okay look, I don't know what your problem is, maybe some misguided sense of obligation to protect "your program", but I do not appreciate you being condescending over what amounts to my opinion.
I wouldn't be condescending to someone saying photoshop is big and scary just because I've been using it for years.
Someone was saying promo drove them up the wall, I was explaining what about it it drives me up the wall.

You're even proving my original point, you realize that?
Anyway thanks for helping me with my problem even if not in the most charming way  :)

Does scaling an image blur it?

I feel your pain. I'll be switching to something else soon. Might even learn ScriptFu and try extending GIMP now that it's getting single window mode.
I'm curious, if you were switching away from ProMotion, why do you pick GIMP before Grafx2?

@KittenMaster: FWIW Grafx2 also has that functionality.
If you insist on being pessimistic about your own abilities, consider also being pessimistic about the accuracy of that pessimistic judgement.

9_6: Sorry for being a bit harsh, and yeah I see how PM is counterintuitive in a lot of ways, but it is not really hard to learn if you spend a weekend to look into things. I got quite a bit of stuff around my head atm and am a bit on edge. Sorry again for lashing out.

Animation. Also, the old school interface doesn't really resonate with me.

Haha, I wondered if it'd be animation (In that case, I guess you are also aiming to install GIMP-GAP.).
Interesting timing you have..

Forgot to mention this here, since I know there are other artists that appreciated his work on Pixelation, but Moebius died this week. Chances are you've seen something he's done or influenced in your time enjoying artistic entertainment.

Yeah, Moebius dying made me sad when I heard it a few days ago. His legacy will live on.
