I have written a few words and created also a transparent background (I think...)
What I would like to do now is to place a photo as a background to the text I already have. Is that possible or do I have to start with the photo?
I did put a real photo in the background of my website to fit entire page. So the text of my webpage is black, and sometimes other colors. So what happen is that some times the text is hard to read when it come on top of dark places of the photo (for example hear of people). So i want to adapt the photo to make it more unicolor, more whiten (increase whiteness) so the black text will appear even better.
What tools and filters in gimp that give me this ability to do that ?
I've just got the photo & graphic designer 7 for personal use and im trying to put a photo i have onto a different background. I have the background photo and the photo i want to add to it on my computer. The photo i want to add onto the background has got things round it that i want to delete but when i use the magic erase it just fills it with something else from the pic. Is there any was i can cut the part of the image i want away from the rest to then be able to add it to the background image?
View 9 Replies View RelatedSay I have a bunch of pictures, and I want to place each of them on a certain (bigger) background, is there a way to do this in an efficient manner instead of opening up each photo and manually putting it on the background and then saving them individually?
So for example, I have a bunch of pictures taken and they're say, 100x100. And I have this background that's say 150x150 and I want to have each photo with the background behind it. Is there any way I can do this efficiently? Photoshop CS3 on Windows XP SP3.

I am using Photoshop cs6. I purchased a template for magazine advertising purposes. The images have been taken out but there are custom designed objects (masked shapes) where I am supposed to place my images. When I attempt to place a photo into one of the shapes, using the Place Command, it does not work.
How can I place an image into one of the objects?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to crop a photo to remove the background? Or do I need to go through several of the general tutorials before I can follow a tutorial on cropping?
I found a bunch of cropping tutorials on YouTube, but they used a lot of advanced (to me) terms and seemed focused on difficult situations.
I have 30-40 photos that are of wooden figures cut on a band saw. They do not have highly irregular edges like hair or fuzz.
I am hoping for a tool that can automatically follow the outline and then let me make any minor adjustments that may be needed.
I'm completely new to Gimp, and have one task that I would like to complete. I'm a fiberartist and would like to replace the backgrounds in my photos with a gradient one.
I have managed to create a "gradient image", and have also tried to follow a PDF tutorial, and YouTube video. The dialog boxes didn't match and I wasn't successful. I tried finding "decompose" and "mask", but it may be the instructions weren't spot on.
I have downloaded Gimp 2.8

In the attached photo you will see a fireplace, what I would like to do is to either lift the fireplace off the background. OR clear the background and just have the fireplace, then save it out as a PNG file.
How do I edit a photo so the background appears out of focus?
My pal here at work has a photo of his father in law running a Marathon and wants to get it framed for his upcoming birthday, unfortunatley the runner just behind him (in the photo) is quite prominent so he wants to try and remove/edit.
I am new to the gimp software and am struggling blending a photo into a solid color background.I cannot seem to get rid of the hard end of the photo. I have tried applying a mask then using the blending tool, but still cannot remove the line.

I seem to be having problems when I lasso round a specific part of a photo taken with a white background and then try to add that part of the image to a plain #000000 black background.
I always seem to get a white outline around the image when I place it on the black background, even when its on ZERO feathered. I don't like using feathered as it adds a smudge round the outside of the image.
I have a scanned guest pass that is 2 color. The pass is in jpg format. although i can put it in any format necessary.

View 4 Replies View Relatedi have been doing HTML off and on for a few years but am really starting to get really heavy into it, as well as CSS and other tools...and have just discovered GIMP
i have an image..which happens to be my business card and to begin with, it was an .eps file, but i converted it to a .jpg...what i am wanting to figure out, and do with it is use it for my web page i am building
it has a background on it and on top of it it has my text...i am wanting to keep the text also, but my main concern is to use just the background for my website....how is extracting the back ground away from the text possible in GIMP and also saving the text as well.
I am trying to create a form with a watermark image in Publisher 2013 and the text I want to overlay on the watermark is cut from an image I screenshot, so it has a white background, making overlaying a watermark impossible. There are boxes and bubbles and other items that I really do not want to re-create so that's why I am trying to do this first, before re-creating the entire forms from scratch.
Anyway, what I want to do is A. remove all of the white from the background (even in the spaces between the e's an B's and everything; yes I know it is insane, but I like things to be perfect) and B. I would like to darken the text. Currently is is almost gray-ish and I want it to be black.
I created a text logo for my site. When I save the text it saves a white background too. Now I cant put that on my site with the background being there.I just want the text not the background.
View 3 Replies View RelatedBasically, I'm trying to extract the text from the attachment showing below so that I can transfer it somewhere else. I seem to be getting stuck on the "Path from Text" part, I'm using it, but nothing happens. Do I need to be using the tool for all of the letters individually? but I've spent ages trying to sort this out.....Driving me bonkers. I'm using GIMP 2.8 BTW.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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 .
I have text on a transparent background.
I did it before but I've forgotten how and I can't find it.
I have red text, for example. How do I add a white background around that text now? Basically, the outer edges of the text become white.
I know how to create text with a background picture inside the text. I want to put this text onto another image. So the text with the background inside the letters, will be superimposed on new image.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI find the red text and black background that the Gimp Help uses very difficult for my eyes. I see you're using the same format here, too.
Is there some way I can change it in those two places: the Help thing and here?

View 2 Replies View RelatedFollow me, if you will:
lower layer: text on white background with a freeform line around the text (this page I created in iStudio, with the text block irregular on both right and left, the black line curving around the text)
All I want to do, before I add the next layer, is highlight that line and make it a little bit lighter (in blackness).
I can see various ways to select the line and its curvature, but I don't know how to lighten the color of the selected line.
Can Gimp superimpose text in landscape orientation on photo?If so, I can not find in the documentation how to do this.
This is my first posting. I hope I am asking through the correct list serve?
