By the way, how can I select the background layer? By default, it always selects the image object
Hi John, I've replied this email on the list, rather than to you personally, so that others can help/be helped. I'm not quite sure what you mean by an image object - GIMP is, in general, a raster editor so we don't really use objects. You can access the layers dialog by Windows -> Dockable Dialogs -> Layers (should be in the second section). That shows a preview list of the layers you have on your image and you can select the specific layer from there. You might wish to read http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-image-combining.html#gimp-concepts-layersfor more information about layers. Kind regards Xiella
