Make a Poster Image

In this project, you will make a poster image by using a photo, modifying it with Gimp, then adding some text to it with Inkscape. In Inkscape, you will also convert the file format from .jpg to .dxf.

 

Content

You are free to work with pretty much any content, however, it must be appropriate for public display. For this reason, steer away from images of guns, drugs, sexism and racism. Your work should not be offensive to members of the community.

 

Start with the photo

a relatively simple image is best. You may need to crop it. This will likely be in the Image menu, or it may be in the edit menu.

 

Make the picture grayscale

Convert the picture to grayscale by going the the Image menu, choose mode, then grayscale.

 

Increase the contrast

You can use the brightness and contrast settings in the Color tools menu

 

Save the picture

Save the picture with a new name which will help you find it later
