(download the file first) As 'root' Go to /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts and drop the file in there (make sure Gimp is not running) Then start Gimp You'll find it in the filters menu in the 'Eg' section at the bottom is what you should see (although probably not in pretty chocolate brown like this I did in Parsix) ...and here's one I made earlier !

Very good, he (or she) who dares - wins
... love your latest tag btw. For a nation surrounded by water, you have to wonder where the other imports are coming from though - outer space maybe?

H! Mikkh, ;D
I tried to put Copyright in too Linux Mint 9 64bit as you told me to before.
You can use this plugin
registry.gimp.org/node/109
just copy it into the scripts folder
(download the file first)
As 'root'
Go to /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts and drop the file in there
(make sure Gimp is not running)
Then start Gimp
You'll find it in the filters menu in the 'Eg' section at the bottom
is what you should see (although probably not in pretty chocolate brown like this I did in Parsix)
...and here's one I made earlier !
And i get this

I've always got ideas and not always about the opposite sex either ;o)
Looks like you wasn't 'root' when you tried copying the file - hence the error
I've just tried it in Gimp 2.6.8 and PClinuxOS and it works fine, although PClinuxOS has the very handy 'Konqueror as super user' in it's KDE desktop to save me the hassle of logging out. I don't know if Mints Gnome desktop has a similar option - Nautilus is the default file manager in most Gnome based distros, so maybe there's a Nautilus as root or super user option in the menu?

Ubuntu and many of it's clones don't have a real 'root' user by default, they just use the user password as a pretend root user with all that sudo malarkey
You can force it to give root a real password and then login as root properly by running the following command
sudo passwd root
It will ask for a password to run the sudo bit first, then you supply the root password - twice. None of it gets echoed to the screen, but it is accepting what you type - so do it carefully.
There used to be 'Mint Assistant' in earlier versions to make this easy, but they seem to have done away with that in later versions for some reason
You could just use, as a quick fix
sudo nautilus
or even (just to confuse matters and add another command to your knowledge)
gksudo nautilus
