This document provides instructions for basic image editing and manipulation in GIMP. It includes steps to:
- Create a new black image canvas and add text
- Apply a Gaussian blur to a text layer
- Add a new color layer and change its blend mode
- Use paths and hue/saturation to change the color of hair in an image
- Open multiple images as layers and add a gradient layer mask to blend them together.
2. Simple Floating Logo
Select File then New This will open the Create a New Image dialog,
with options for you to specify
You can make this new image any dimensions you want, specify
a Width of 256 px, and a Height of 128 px.
Hit OK to create the new image
3. Fill the New Image with Black
Make sure that the Foreground Color is appropriately set. Click on the foreground color
in the Color area to bring up the Change Foreground Color dialog (if your foreground
color is already black you dont have to do this step
The Change Foreground Color dialog allows you to now set the foreground color. We
want to set the color to black RGB(0, 0, 0):
4. With the foreground color set, we can now use the Bucket Fill Tool to fill in our image
Open Tools then Paint Tools and Bucket Fill
Adding Some Text
Defining the text box boundaries.
5. If youd like to re-size the box for some reason, you can now click and drag in any of the green
areas shown below
Text Tool Options (left), canvas view (right).
6. On your Layers tab, right click on the text layer we just made, and choose New
from Visible.
You can also create a new layer from visible using the menu then Layer and then
New from Visible
7. There is a white border around the Visible layer. This indicates that this layer
is currently active, so that any operations we perform will apply to this layer.
To apply a slight Gaussian blur to this layer, we simply invoke the command through
the menu then Filters and then Blur and lastly Gaussian Blur
This will invoke the Gaussian Blur dialog, where we can specify how much blur we
want to apply.
8. Adding Some Color
Add a splash of color!
Open Layer then New Layer Or by Right-Clicking on the Visible layer in the
layer palette, and choosing New Layer from the context menu
The Create a New Layer dialog will appear - it doesnt matter what it gets
filled with, so you can leave it at whatever Layer Fill Type its set at (White by
default). Hit OK to create the new layer.
