Yeah I cheated Esper. You are correct. Thanks Molly, I was hoping it would stand out from the background. I too like Conbagui's version of a room as a banner. Give a very welcome feel. I like the 'mother board/circuit board' K1TesseraEna |

Thanks Esper and a matter of fact yes, I did link the layers of the rectangular shapes and set them to a specific perspective. It's odd how doing it this way didn't occur to me. I've never before needed to linked layers and wasn't sure how to do it. And I consider myself an advanced Gimp user.  Gimp and learn, Gimp and learn...  Hay! Perhaps 'Linking Layers' would make a good 60 second tutorial for CRogers to demonstrate? Hint, hint... Oh! Here's the 'Gimp Splash' screen that matches the banner or vice versa. I named this splash screen 'Slide'. .png)

Love the linked perspective results. That's a keeper and a tutorial would be awesome. |

Very nice Wallace, the only thing which annoys me about the perspective tool is that is doesn't seem to snap to guide lines. |

I think the perspective tool does snap to guide lines. I really haven't noticed if this does happen when the perspective tool is used along with guide lines being present. |

It will but it isn't very good at it in my opinion. It could use some more development for sure.

This my experience, the mouse pointer (or a keyboard nudge) is the ticket with snap to guides or grids. You can adjust threshold, Preferences | Tool Options. |
