Hi Scott, You need to make a selection of the cartoon figure. Check the gimp manual on how to do this, there are too many ways to explain all here. Then go to select float. Then create a new layer. Make the background layer invisible or delete the background layer if you no longer need it.
link to the manual http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/ Hope this helps. >Toggle Quick Mask Shift + Q >It is in the lower left hand corner of the image window (Linux + Gimp 2.6). > >On Sun, Sep 13, 2009 at 5:37 PM, Scott <for...@gimpusers.com> wrote: >> I would like to know if it is possible to take an ordinary gif pic like a >> cartoon and cut the cartoon figure out of it?
