>>10218791been using gimp for some years now i think. i dont really have any background in this. all i did is experiment with the tools like cutting out and fitting pictures together. experimenting with colors. whats really useful to know that there are different layers. most people already know this and i dont really have any good advice. i just played around with gimp for a long time and i remember what the tools do. one of my favorite things to do is color a black and white image with different color using layers. for example another layer on top of that layer will blend in with a specific option like darkness only being transparent or light being transparent or a whole bunch of other stuff.
