you can paste it from a web page. > my photos. Also, is there a good sight I can check out for plug-ins > and/or filters to add that might be similar to those available in > Photoshop? > i have been watching photoshop tutorials lately. since both apps were written to accomplish the same tasks i have been able to get gimp to do most of the things photoshop did. one tutorial i saw recently used a "difference layer". photoshop could get this layer in one step. for me to get gimp to do this, i needed to add a layer and then change its mode from "normal" to "difference" via the layers dialog. i also checked out what the other modes did to the same technique by trying other modes. so not only does gimp take a minimum of two steps for this thing that photoshop does in one step -- it might take even more steps since you are curious like me. everything else will be a similar translation. enjoy the gimp! carol _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
