Good Saturday or Sunday, as it may be! Thank you, Ofnuts, for reminding me about taking the image from disk. Duh!
You gave me the link to an excellent tutorial on YouTube that taught me the title page process but the video is no longer available, or so says YouTube. I have looked at three other tutorials on YouTube for placing text on top of a gif image. All of them move too fast for me. I cannot understand how they get the image to break into its layers on the right-hand side of the Gimp work area. Not knowing that or how to change the size of the layer images to "gigantic," as advised by one tutorial, I find it harder to access that knowledge. Please point me in a useful direction. Many thanks and have a pleasant Sunday! Paula On Sat, Jan 28, 2017 at 5:26 AM, Ofnuts <ofn...@gmx.com> wrote: > On 28/01/17 05:36, Paula Koval wrote: > >> Hello, All!
