SOTAChrome Defualt Image

The Script-Fu plugin SOTAChrome does not work properly in 2.8.16  for Windows 7. Every time I run it, on default it doesn't produce a default image. The image it produces for me is a straight gray one and sometimes when I try to run it a second time, it's just blank. Other times it won't allow me to change This plugin has been apart of gimp since it's creation. When I update gimp, I always get my updates from the official gimp website. It seems that Version 1.2 of SOTAChrome only works on some platforms. It should work on all platforms and it doesn't. 

I have attached an image to show you what I mean. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Other times it won't allow me to change the font.

The problem appears to be where the script creates the layer-mask for the Highlight layer and strokes the current selection:

    (set! layer2 (car (gimp-layer-copy layer1 TRUE)))
    (gimp-image-insert-layer img layer2 0 0)
    (gimp-context-set-brush (brush brush-size))
    (gimp-context-set-foreground '(255 255 255))
    (gimp-edit-stroke layer-mask)

It's selecting brushes from a list of brushes that don't exist in GIMP 2.8, which isn't helping.

Indeed, and it's a duplicate. Let's continue discussion in the older
bug, it even has patches.
