Ok so i thought i'd have a go. I've made some basic graphics in the past with GIMP but an old version and i uninstalled it ages ago. Since then i installed a new version and couldnt remember how to do anything but i've given it a try anyway.

And from the help of Tuscan and Babs in the tutorial thread, i tried cutting out a render which i'm quite pleased with. This new version of GIMP is different with putting on text though. I cant seem to put it where i want



I know its not perfect. It seems a lil blurry and not how it was before i saved it. Should i not have saved it as a jpg?

o0o0o00o i like

thanks

Saved as a png file and this looks better i think

I'd say the last version is far sharper.

Can't say much for your subject matter though, you are on a looser there

[Scorpio]

yeah yeah yeah

Messing around with the text now

from what i've seen and heard you've certainly got the bum of one

PNG is the best to save in it dose stay sharp that way..............

I can see you have a hidden talent there Scorpio i think one to look out for in the future...............

My only concern now is if you take part in the sig competitions then we cant send sigs to you because you will know what you have to beat ????

[Scorpio]

I dont plan to compete. But if i did, i guess i'd have no part in deciding what the comps are and everyone would just send the entries to AB

On the last sig that i posted, i tried to get equal bits of black and red in the text but i couldnt get it like that. Theres more red and a bit of black at the end . How do i make it more equal?

edit : Actually i think i might have just answered that question myself

Thanks people. I know they're very basic but i think its amazing what you can do with very little knowledge

Looking good Scorps - keep up the good work.

They are great, love the last text one

when you do more than one row of text, do you do them on different layers?

I never used Gimp, dunno how it works
