Gimp: Resynthesizer - what is this plug-in?

GIMP is a really helpful program that can help you in many situations. Through the Resynthesizer, which is a plug-in for the program, you can use the new Photoshop CS5 feature "Content Aware Fill" for free. This gives you even more options to create unique content.

How helpful is the plug-in really?

Certainly you should consider whether you need the resynthesizer for your version of GIMP and what benefits you may expect from the extension.

• The idea behind the plug-in is that the feature of "Content Aware Fill" can be used, making it easier to work with retouching.
• Adobe has refined the technique in Photoshop CS5 so that even larger objects can be removed from the image and the free space is replaced by the surrounding area. This makes it appear as if the object was never there.
• In general, such a feature really makes retouching work easier, as unwanted objects can be deleted from existing subjects.
• Before you decide to install Resynthesizer, which is the equivalent for GIMP, you should know that the results will not appear exactly as ideal as they do in Photoshop. Dennoch können Sie wirklich gute Ergebnisse mit dem Plug-in erzielen.
