    Thanks. I’m new to GIMP, and image manipulation programs in general, so even though I understand the concepts it’s not easy because I have to learn which buttons do what, what sequence to use them in, and where they are located. I’m afraid it’s going to take me a while, but with some more good tutorials like this one I’ll eventually get it.
