Hey Dave, I see some blue clutter across the bottom of the image in your screen shot: Automatic cropping (by layer or image) won't remove that. The Crop tool (its button in the main toolbox looks like an Xacto knife) will crop the image to whatever box you put on the screen. With the crop tool active, click and drag to make your box, adjust your box (its corners and edges turn into click-and-drag handles when the mouse pointer is over them), click in the middle of it and zap, there ya go. :o) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: [email protected] List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
