How can i get such effects like in the attached image;
- first of all; the image has no background - the grapes are shown on a plain white background.Note; there is another nice little thing that we have to mention; the image of the grapes are somewhat with a kind of a overdose of light - i think that this is a nice effect - perhaps added with gimp!? The grapes look very interesting.
- the next effect that i like is the adding of the circles that are seen in the image. How did they add those pastel colored circles.

So I have this gif animation and I want to add a background to it. when I add a new layer (the background layer) and draw something on it (like as an example: a field of daisies) and save the layers as an animation than..well..you guessed it..it participates in the animation.
So how to add a background without harassing the animated layers?

I am trying to add a background image to a jigsaw puzzle piece, Been using the magic selection tool and 'paste into' but i cant seem to get straight lines, Ideally i wanted to keep the 3d style of the image, with the new multicolor background, is it easier to create a 'flat' version and then turn it into 3d afterwards,using illustrator or Photoshop or am i best doing what i was doing originally? images are below to show what i mean.

I have a product collage at my company that has a white background with natural shadows. Is there a way to add that to a colored/textured background where the shadows will look correct and I won't have to manually erase all the white?

I've just upgraded to C&PGD from Xtreme v4. Adding a small amount of noise to background images seems to be becoming more popular these days. I've seem tutorials on YouTube for PS and this technique but couldn't find one for Xara.

I'm having issues with my text editor. I have just completed a multilayered composite image with a border and want to add a title on the background layer and can't get the type font to be anything other than very tiny...so I can't even see it.

how to place an gif between two layers (or add text, brushes, images over it) without screwing up the animation. I've experimented with it, and the results tends to be that one of the layers (pictures) go missing in the animation or the animation just does not animate.

I've got an image I'm trying to make my wallpaper thats a 1024 x 768 image. My screen resolution is 1680 x 1050 so if I use the image and use the "fill" option to have the image fit my background perfectly it won't fit and some stuff gets cut off. I have to use the "fill" option instead" of "fit" which gives it borders kind of like of how I want because I'm rotating wallpapers and this is the only one that doesn't work under "fill"
What I want to do is just import my image into gimp and then add some paint on the right and left outside the image to make it wider so it would fit as my background without some stuff getting cut out.
Is there a way to import an image into gimp and then add some paint outside the image and then save the new image with the paint outside the original image onto my hard drive?

I am trying to make a montage/collage for my sister's birthday and have the background image and the other images all sorted.
What I would like to do now is add text saying 'Happy Birthday' into the main image, so that it looks as though it is part of the background.
I'd like it to sink into the background or be embossed and take on the colors of said background too, if possible.

I'm building a site with WordPress and installed a plugin that will create a slider of images on the front page. For each image, there is specific text that goes with the image (just a simple quote). If it's possible to use Gimp to add text to the side of an image and not actually on the image?
Here's a link to the front page of the site that I'm attempting to add the text to. Currently, the photos are there and you will see the blank space next to the images. This blank space is where I would like to add the text. I've contacted the creator of the plugin and there is no way of doing this from within the plugin, itself.

I am trying to add an image next to an image. I did a search and found one post that said to increase the canvas side so that it is large enough to fit both images. I did that. After I paste the second image in to the canvas area, it appears over the first picture. When I use the move tool, it appears to move the second picture behind the new, larger canvas.

Tried using this tutorial: [URL].......
trying to separate non-contiguous letters from a background so as to make the background transparent. I've used various methods including the gimp tutorial referenced above, and am having problems both selecting everything I need and with the transparency.
When I use the foreground select tool as in the tutorial, I can select the first line, 1812, but not the next two. Color values off some? Anyway, after successfully selecting at least the 1812 part, I do the next steps: invert the selection, add alpha channel, del background; and end up with a transparent background and a 'kind of' transparent 1812. If I try to save it as a png and open it in any other program it's just empty or black.

I have an image that I want to extend the background on. So basically, I am making the people smaller, but the background larger..if that makes sense? I'm trying to make a collage, and i want the background of one photo to be the background of my canvas. The background it just "grey-ish", but not solid. I know I could clone, or copy and paste a part of the image into the background, but am wondering if there's a way to "stretch" just a portion of the image maybe? Or if I could copy a small part of it, but when I paste it, change the shape or size it's being pasted into?

Before I pass along to you my request, I'd like to point out that I have watched tutorial, after tutorial on how to remove an image from a background. Every thing goes great, "step by step", (my project compared to tutorial) right to the final procedure. Then my image either turns "white/black", or disappears (lets just say the project does not pan out compared to tutorials).But everything is "fine", right up to final phase. How to do the following....
1. Extract an image from a background (any kind) of background.
2. Instruct me how to take the extracted image, and "save" it to file, to use it in "another" project, at a later time.
3. How to take an image (for instance, a large hole in a tree) and take another image, and place it in there. Inside this hole in the tree, I want to take an image, and "blend" it into the hole in the tree. Another wards,I don't want to just place a vivid "sharp" image into the hole in the tree, I want a " halo/gradual fade out from tree, to a gradual fade in to object placed in tree. I hope you understand my description. Basically, going from a sharp vivid image, to a gradual blending of another image in hole of tree.

What is the best way to paste an image into a background and have it blend nicely with the background to avoid jaggies.
I've been playing with the blur and smudge icon but then it depends on my eye and I lose resolution around the edges. I guess what I would want ideally is for a way to paste my image then have a slider or a way to select the amount of anti aliasing from image to background.

I have a set of window buttons in XPM format whose background I would like to convert to a blueish tone from their current gray. The problem I'm having is that after blending the button images to the intended blue tone they just don't look good at all.
To illustrate my point, here's the original (menu) button with gray background. Size is 12x18.
Then I took the following steps to try to apply the blue background:
- Manually edited the original XPM and removed the background (it's referenced by the '@' char.)
- Opened it in Gimp and created a new layer.
- Moved the new layer down so it acts as the background.
- Applied a fill to background layer using intended blue color (#2d6fb5).
- Set opacity of layer containing the button to 85.
- In Colours->Hue Saturation set Lightness of layer to 100 so it blends better.
This is the result of the above steps:
As you can tell the result doesn't look good at all. Is there any technique I could use to make the buttons blend in to a more visually pleasing way with the blue tone I chose?
PS: Attached original XPM.

I have a 25 layer animated gif done. I also have a png of the same size with a transparent background. I want to run that png image on each layer so the background is animated while the foreground is not.
How do I add that layer to each one of the 25 layers of the gif so that the background looks animated while the foreground looks still? Version 2.6.11
I have attached the 25 layer background and the single top layer.

how I can get rid of the bluish colour around the tree that I have removed the background from (see attachement). I first invert the image, then go to "Components", choose Monochrome, adjust the image to get the black background, and finally go to "Levels" to increase the dark background. However, when I had the mask and do the rest of the sequence, I keep getting the blue tinge of the sky around the object I have cut out.

I have an image. I want to add a solid color strip near the bottom . On top of the strip I want to add text .
Question: what's the best way I can get this strip?
In Photoshop, I would probably just create a new image of the length of the strip and then fill with the color I need and then copy and paste onto the image .

Below are listed the "step by step" procedure I'm going through, to isolate an image, "free" of any background. Each and every time, after removing the images original back ground, I'm left with a white back ground. List "process" by process..step by step, to "totally" isolate an image by itself (without any background) "whatsoever"!
I have now removed the background on (2) images. This is the process I go through in "order", and each time, I'm left with a white box in the background of my image.
"First" I load image.
Second I go to "layer"..
"Third" I go to "Transparency"
"Fourth", I click around image I desire to save...clicking on the "starting" point, till the ants start marching.
"Fifth", I click "select", scroll down and click "To Path"
"Sixth" I click on "Select", scroll down and click "Invert"!

I am removing the background on a detailed object(s). I removed the initial part..the ants started marching. Then I pushed "control click", and started on another section..the ants started marching on that piece. Then I moved to my 3rd section doing the same. But when you click your final at your beginning on your 3rd section, the ants start marching there also..but you lose the sections you did previously. So I went to "undo", clicked that, and got my previous sections "back".
But my question is..how can I continue taking out the background in this picture...there are a lot of openings between arms and bodies etc., where I need to remove the background. I've tried removing the background on a detailed image one time before, and the same thing happened. Gimp will only allow you to remove so much, and if you try to remove more, it cancels out what you previously tried to remove...how can I continue removing the background on his image, being the image already has an alpha channel over it. If you try to continue after saving the present image to path/invert...you will lose the image your trying to save in the second process.
