Thanks to your great video, I'm going to start using GIMP today. You got to the point, explained things clearly and easily, you made using GIMP look like a lot of fun. More videos should be like yours. Also I've subscribed today. Thanks again.
Fun fact: The Crop tool's "Delete cropped pixels" option used to be its default/only behavior. If you want to nondestructively "crop" a single layer, here are some alternatives: For layers that _are not_ using an alpha channel: - Add an alpha channel, then use Rectangle Select to highlight the area to be cropped. - Invert the selection, then use the Eraser tool to manually erase the portions outside the desired area. - You can reverse this with the Eraser's "anti-erase" setting. - _Why this works:_ The Eraser tool is functionally just a brush that operates on the layer's alpha channel, leaving the RGB values of the region unchanged. For layers that are already using an alpha channel: - Attach a Layer Mask to that layer. - Select the Layer Mask, then create a Rectangle Select highlighting the area to be kept. - Invert the Selection, then paint the entire region with black. - You can reverse this by painting the mask white. - _Why this works:_ A Layer Mask is functionally just a secondary alpha channel, which you can paint on like any normal grayscale layer, where white = opaque and black = transparent (IIRC).
hi, i'm trying to put 2x3 ar photos (portrait) into a 4x5 size box, to post on instagram. how do i do that? the bars on top and bottom won't bother me. i can't figure out an easy way. any help would be great.
None of this scat is working. I want it to GO AWAY and none of this is doing that. How do you find the delete crop pixels command??????? This is one thing photoshop does FAR BETTER.
