I've just upgraded my Gimp to 2.8.2. I read that 2.8.x has a new feature
called layer groups. Will see if that (or anything else) will help.

Alexande, thanks for your response.

I put all the images I want into 1 group, and I've duplicated it. But now,
how do I move a group of layers around my canvas?

 This is because GIMP deals with bitmap images. The selection tools
 select parts of bitmaps on just one layer.

 There is no multiple selection of layers yet. Athough for aligning and
 distributing them you can use the Align tool with Shift pressed.

Ahh, I figured it out.

In my Move dialog, what was selected was  Pick a layer or guide. I
changed it to Move the active layer and moving the layer group worked
without any problem.
