best to use texttool to make each letter on a separate layer. you do this by highlighting the background layer and clicking on that for each new letter. then use the guides and move tool to settle everything that you have in the way you want it. from there, <Image> -->Image -->Merge Visible Layers (with only the text layers showing) will make one layer out of the several. text tool is set up to make good text. you are making decorative text which is more like good decorative text, comparatively speaking. carol _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
