Python Inner Glow Plugin for The Gimp


I found one plugin to do an inner glow in The Gimp, but it didn't work right for me so I wrote this simple one. Basically it strokes the inside of the selection with a line of //Strength// width and then Gaussian blurs it by //Size// pixels. The other options should be self-explanatory.

I've moved the actual script to github, and you can find it here: https://github.com/cybertron/gimp-plugins/blob/master/innerglow.py

To use it you can either download the file or copy and paste it into a file in your ~/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins directory. ''Don't forget to make it executable.'' It should show up in the Decor menu of Filters.
