GIMP | Outlined Text

In today's tutorial, we will be creating text outlines. This is different than my previous outline text tutorial, as the text is just made up of outlines, with transparency in the center. Creating outlined text in GIMP is easy, and in this video I will show you two different ways to do it. One sees us using "Alpha To Selection" while the other utilizes paths. You will be able to see the quality difference between the two.

This was the easiest explanation of how to create outline text using paths that I've ever found. I will be using this A LOT! Thank you!❤

Just what I needed to make my UA-cam banner, I used the first easy method. 😁 Thank you!

Thank so much...We're a new fan of your channel.Great work.

Thanks, this really helped. The second method worked better fro me too apart two intersects in the letters K and Y, which I easily cleaned up with the eraser tool.

Thanks for your help! Stressful journey but finally found your video! Making vinyl stickers with a cricut machine.

and where does the middle layer goes when I already have 30 other layers for other objects in the design?

[@trajenxx]

Directly under the Text layer.

Right clicking the text layer did nothing for me

[@nb41987]

Soo cool!

[@marcelomafra]

the simplest way is - alpha to selection and select border and size
