GIMP :: Putting Text Onto Image And Making Text Glow Like Light Saber
Apr 12, 2013I want to make flyers for my band. I used to put text onto jpeg images using the Microsoft PAINT program but I want to get better at GIMP.
I really like some of the text(s) I make using the word art function in Micrsoft Excel 2010 but it seems I can't cut and paste them onto the image when using GIMP.
Is there a tutorial on putting text onto an image and making the text glow like a light saber?

GIMP :: How To Add More Text To Text Image
Jun 15, 2012I have a gif image of Text that I'm pretty sure I created with GIMP a long time ago (See Attachment). I want to inrease the box to create another line of Text. How can I find out what font the original is and how do I add height to the image to add an additional line of text.
The attachment is a PNG but doesn't seem to be showing up correctly. I'll try to both attach it and insert it..
GIMP :: Add Text To Image In Less Than 10,000 Words
Apr 21, 2013I have successfully assembled three images into a workable form. Now I want to add a text line to the image. GIMP's text system seems to be very cryptic, what with pathing and other terms that don't seem to have a definition as far as I have found. All I want is a single line of common text characters. Nothing fancy, no text jumping out of a cornucopia or being carried by a dirigible, no clowns or frogs. Just plain text.

Nov 1, 2013Someone has given me a image which has a web address at the bottom but I can't quite make out the web address as it is a bit blurry. Simply sharpening the image does make the words any clearer. Is there any special technique that will make these letters clearer so I can make out the web address?

Dec 19, 2012Don't know much about photo shopping or manipulating images, but hope to learn more, since I already have one Etsy shop (selling beauty products) and am planning on opening another (selling miniatures).
For my first Etsy shop I used a Free Etsy Banner provided by a blogger I follow. I did not include text or my shop name in my Banner.
I have downloaded another banner from this same blogger, this one has the option to include text (your shop name) and I would like to include my shop name for the miniatures Etsy shop I plan to open within about six month.
I asked her how to enter text and she said to just open it in Picture, or whichever photo shop type program I use. I have a Mac, am fairly broke, Gimp was recommended to me by another small business owner.
I managed to figure out how to enter text, use the text editor, and place it in the blank field. The only problem is I can't see the text, despite playing around with the colour of the text.
GIMP :: Circular Text Within Image?
Dec 10, 2012I'm just getting into Gimp now. I've used Corel Draw a bit, but I'm not too familiar with Gimp.
I'm trying to make a layer that will make a semi-circular text that fits within the belt of the attached image. I'd like to have it on a layer that I could easily select and change text/font as I'm still playing around with what I want inside of it.
GIMP :: How To Add Flaming Text To Image
Oct 15, 2012How to use any photo editing software so my knowledge and skillset are limited. that being said, i'm slowly starting to get the hang of a few effects, and am working on making my own desk top. i blended the images that i wanted together, so the only thing left to do is to add flaming text to it.
I know how to make flaming text on a black background, unfortunately i don't know how to add said text to my image (if it is at all possible). i tried adding a seperate layer with a black background, then i figured i would delete that layer, but you have to merge the text down to the black background in order to be able to use the smudge effect, so that idea was a bust. i can't really think of anything else.
GIMP :: How To Add Text With A Background On Image
Feb 13, 2013I 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 .

Nov 11, 2010I'm working with banners and I've made the banner I want. When I put the text on there and add an animation to the text, it always goes to a different screen and won't show with the original background. Is there anyway to get the animated text to work on a still background?

Dec 22, 2012I have gimp 2.8 and am taking a class on gimp. I need to use an image to make text and it doesn't work.
I have followed steps from Google searched tutorials and I can do all the steps but the end result is I still paste a black font. (I tried opening gimp tutorials and it took me to a page to link to the tuts but wouldn't open? So i went to Google.
I have followed a variety of step lessons - some that are easy and some that go on forever. None work. The easiest steps were .. open an image / select tool font / click on image / type text / resize to how I want it to look / move it to where i want text to be over image / click on text layer / right click / drop menu choose "alpha to selection" = text letters become selected (at this stage I can fill with a pattern etc and that works so I know I have a selection) Edit/ copy / open new file / edit / paste / and the text should be written with the image as the letters BUT I just get the text in black.
What am i doing wrong or does this feature not work in 2.8.

Mar 22, 2011My problem might be a little more complicated than most problems considered 'beginner', but for all I know about GIMP (which is very little), it could be very simple.
I wish to superimpose text on an image so that the text's color us what color it was superimposed upon. To better explain what I want, take this rainbow image:

Say somebody type a large lowercase g near the top left corner of the image. The top circle of the g would be red whereas the bottom circle (or hook depending on the font) would be purple since it dips that far down.
After I finish typing the text, I could save that layer, or cut/copy that text as a new image and save it then.

GIMP :: Extracting Text From A Logo And Using / Edit In Another Image
Jan 30, 2014The company logo is two words. It's in Irish and has a fada on top of one letter.(hence it is harder to find a nice font)
I'm trying to take the logo from the pdf it's in, and apply it to a poster i have designed. I'd like to be able to change the size of the lettering and color etc once it's in the new image.
I've tried the "path tool", and also cropping it and copy/paste to the new image, but the background color that comes with it looks awful!
GIMP :: Simple Text Box - Square Image With A Letter On It?

2) Click the 'A' button in the toolbox
3) Click 'Use Editor (since nothing seems to work)
4) Drag a rectangle onto my image.

Sep 27, 2011I'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.

GIMP :: Make Image Map With Copyable Text For Website
Jan 4, 2013If I the image map I use for my website.....could have copyable text.
For instance.... here is a link to a page on my website...the whole body of the webpage is a png image that I made using gimp and the image map option. The problem is that the text is not copyable...since it is part of the image. Is there a way to keep the format as it is, but make the test copyable as if it were a website made by the regular, HTML programming way?

Sep 9, 2012How to clean screenshots that contain text or other stuff overlapped in an image.
Here's an example:
I'd like to know if it's possible to remove the overlapped bits of screenshots in the upper and bottom left corners and the text in-between using GIMP. The second picture is merely for reference of the material missing(I'm not sure if it can actually be used because the quality is not the same, and I believe the colors are a little off). And if it's indeed possible, how it can be done.

Sep 15, 2013I just installed GIMP. My experience is with office suites, like WordPerfect and Sun Open Office.
First, is this the official forum for gimp.org?

It is basically a horizontal rectangle with text on the left and a color on the right, and I just need to replace the text and change the font, without disturbing anything else. It needs to "fit" back into a webpage afterwards. As far as I can see, there is only one layer, if that makes any difference.
GIMP :: Text Tool Changes Text Properties When Paste Over Old Text Content?
Nov 2, 2012i switched gimp 2.6 to 2.8 and new text tool behaves strangely, as i remember in gimp 2.6 when i try to change text content with selecting old text and pasting new text i could use same text size and same font with my old text without doing anything but now in the gim 2.8 whenever i try to change content of a text layer i need to choose again font and text size from toolbox options, but why do i have to do this, i have a text placed on my image with a certain font and certain font size and i just want to alter my text conten not the size of text or font , it changes automatically to back text size and font whatever i used last time in another work.
summary: i want to change my text content without setting my font and font size properties, i want to use my text layers old properties
