Plasma Overview You can find this filter in image menu following Filters Render Clouds Plasma Plasma generates colorful clouds, which can be used used for textures. You control the turbulence in the plasma cloud with the Turbulence slide. All of the colors produced by Plasma are completely saturated. Sometimes the strong GNU Image Manipulation you desaturate the image using Layer/Colors/Desaturate. An enhanced version of the Plasma plug-in, called Plasma2, with many more options and parameters, is available from the Gimp Plugin Registry.

However, the rendered plasma image is not tileable like the NCP filter. You control the turbulence in the plasma cloud with softer cloud (like steam, mist or smoke). You can also generate Seed for random variations in the plasma cloud. Sometimes the strong colors may be distracting, and a more interesting surface will appear
