I have a Gimp script that I use to create an image preview. For some reason, the script is grayed out if I don't have any images open, preventing me from selecting it. I can only select it if I already have an image open. This is frustrating, as I'm using this to create a new image, so I want to be able to use it from startup without anything else open. Is that something that can be done?
I did check to make sure that the placement in the toolbar isn't the issue. Even if I set it to be in File>Create, it's still grayed out.

; register the script within gimp menu

I believe this is because you have defined the image type as "*"
in the registration data. Define it to ""
(empty string) and you should be OK.
