Oh, ok. Didn't know about that.

Ok, I've tried it and it works. I wouldn't agree on me complicating things; I'm just not used to the Gimp-way(tm) (though I have used gimp for a number of years, but only for simple things). :-) Here's how I would _like_ it to work: I should be able to move any layer freely about and manipulating it separately from the rest of the layers (and the pic/canvas). This is how layers work in CAD-software (to which I am used to). If I have to "anchor" the floating layer, then I'll have to perform additional steps if there's another manipulation I would like to do to the layer (without affecting the whole image/pic/canvas). But I guess I can emulate this behaviour with multiple pictures. But I can work with the current way. The "New Layer" was a bit unintuitive (at least I think so). >i'd be suprised if you did, it's layer/center layer. :) Unfortunately I don't have that either... :-( Thanks for educating me!
