Dear friends: I am relatively new to the Gimp, though I do have some experience with Photoshop. I know how to do basic image editing and manipulation in Photoshop, and I am trying to learn how to do this in the Gimp (1.2 or 2 -- I have them both installed on my Xandros Linux system). The first thing I need to know right now is how to create or edit a type layer. I've looked in vain in Grokking-the-Gimp as well as in the Help files for Gimp for simple, step-by-step instructions on how to do this in the Gimp. I have also tried by trial and error but have failed. I'm including three screenshots to illustrate what I have tried to do.

But where is the "export" option located. I have been unable to find it. Thank you so much.
