HOW TO GLOW - PHOTOMANIPULATION GIMP TUTORIAL 

I got confused 2 minutes into the vid, but it's great stuff

Thx

I really appreciate that :)

Not sure what you mean? You should be able to add this to a playlist. It should also be embeddable. And thanks for your comment!

for some reason it did not let me but ill try again! @@TutsByKai

Thank you my good sir.

Welcome!

I don't drink coffee! :D

The reason is simple, what if you want to change something or move something around later? Obviously you couldn't if everything is glued to the same layer!

@@TutsByKai How is this better than simply choosing a paint brush and adjusting its opacity and size?

@@vkaa3k190 I'm not sure how that applies, as you still wouldn't be able to edit or move separate objects around since everything is on the same layer. Opacity and size doesn't replace are brush settings, not a replacement for layers. Think about it like a blender. If you put strawberries, bananas, and kiwis in a blender and blend them, you can't get the individual fruits back. But if you keep them in separate containers, like layers, you can eat each one individually.

Using multiple layers is like , the standard/proper way to do any kind of editing lol

@@jaxsharp I've gotten similar results to his without using those layers. Layers are definitely needed, but not here. He made a simple task much more complex.
