[Gimp-user] Combine 2 pictures

2006-06-18 Thread Thomas w. Cranston
I scanned artwork that was bigger than my scanner, by scanning the right 
end, and then the left end. I saved the 2 images, as a, and b.


I next opened up bothe images, and tried moving image b, onto the window 
with image a. I first tried pasting b next to image a, but it covers a. 
I next tried dragging b into the window w/a. That did not work either.


How do I do this, so that I can combine them as one image.

I am surmising that the problem which you are experiencing is because  
you haven't adjusted your canvas size to accommodate both layers  
side-by-side. The easiest way to do this (assuming that you have two  
separate layers) is to move one layer completely outside of the other  
layer and then perform an Image-Fit canvas to layers command. You  
should then be able to see both layers in your window and can place  
them accordingly. After you have the layers where you wish, you should  
crop your image to eliminate the unwanted portions.

Image-Resize Canvas on one otf the imaegs. Set it big enbough to 
acomodate both images. Then,.  just copy and paste, and click on 
layers-new layer after pasting. That will give you 2 independent 
layers, each with one image. You can then drag then around, and use 
the perspective tool to make then match. Go to the layers dialog 
(dialogs-layers), and redduce the opacity of the lauer that is above 
to make it easier to put it on the right place.
