you can use the 2.x versions they are nice and stable and the 2.x series of gimp has a very advanced interface navigation! you should create a new image with the desired size (of the biggest image of your six images) next you would open all the images (because gimp can open serveral images at once) then use the marker tool "select retangular regions" an select one of your images and press CTRL+C. now go back to your primary image and press CTRL+V there. Create a new layer, select it and do it again for all the other images. new layer - > select it -> copy image in ... you may need transparency tough http://gimp.org/tutorials/Changing_Background_Color_1/ joachim > > Thanks > Sandy - -- Keine "Software-Patente" in Europa Wir protestieren gegen "Software-Patente" in Europa. Die EU-Kommission und der Ministerrat bem�hen sich im Verborgenen um unbegrenzte Patentierbarkeit von Software, wie von internationalen Gro�konzernen und Patentanw�lten gefordert.
