Hi Nate, I have used this plug-in to achieve curved text. Make your text in a new file and save it the open filters and click theirl>Pan to Bow. It will take some trial and error. Save the curved text and when you have opened the other part open it as layer. http://registry.gimp.org/node/20869 Good Luck, Gerard. -- Gerard v. V.
