    I appreciate the thoroughness of your tutorial and even design tips that you use.
    For the text shadow issue, you could add a space in the text box to the beginning and end to keep it in the center, but also prevent the shadow from being cut off while still being editable text.

    by the way,
    i found hot key in edit text could use mostly emacs style moving key, except the key 'Ctrl+/ ' for select all text. it is diff from your intro, may be it is because of different version GIMP (my version is 2.10.32,in linux)

    Could you please do a video on something that looks like it has a white background please and then add the transparent part in. Ie. I downloaded a stitch clip art because my grandchildren love this little character and when I added into print and cut in my cricut (ready to sublimate after printing and cutting) the background was white to my eye before printing but when it was printed it had a pink background I hope I've explained this well.

I have a white background layer, then opened an image in a new layer. then duplicated the image layer as I want to play with blending modes. But when I then select the last layer and try to fli the image horizontally, I see it flips it in both layers. Is there a way to just flip it on one layer? thank you

  • @aprildegele1510
    @aprildegele1510 Рік тому +1

    I have been a PS user for decades. Why did I change to GIMP? Because you can no longer get a desktop only version and have to have a subscription. They wouldn't even help me to reactivate my old PS5 because they no longer support it. I wasn't asking for support ... I just wanted to get back what I paid for, and apparently that's no longer an option. Bu-Bye Photoshop.
    Having said that, I heard that GIMP is very similar. Well, it's not. Steep learning curve.
    Yes, it offers (in some cases more than the PS version I had) additional things, but the system doesn't at all work the same. Shortcuts are different. Text handling is MUCH different. Tools aren't as intuitive to change, so many other things.
    Now, I'm not dissing GIMP at all. I'm just pointing out that if a PS user decided, as I did, to go with GIMP instead of paying ransom for PS cloud service you don't want or need, breathe, watch the tutorials, and get over the differences.
    SO frustrating, but it will be okay ...
