Hey everyone! My name is Christine & I recently started making bows, tutus, top hats,etc! I named it after my daughter Bunny Boo. I am here to try and get some help on bottle caps! I basically have it down, but I dont know how to make the ones with circles or other cool shapes  Any advice or help would be great!!! |

So what are these 'bottle caps' and what are they used for? |

Welcome Miss Bunny!  2-ton I asked myself the same question and Molly tagged the same thread I was going to last night but decided not to. Note: I be trolling the forum late late late at night! Cause somebody wanted to actually print images to adhere to physical bottle caps and then somebody came up with a fairly realistic looking cap. To bad it couldn't be angled .. or maybe it can! Regards less .. welcome Bunny you ask and you'll get a whole bunch of answers!

Inkscape has a real cool tutorial on creating a bottle cap here too. Inkscape is a very nice (like Adobe Illustrator), free vector art program that goes perfectly with Gimp. |

Sorry for the belated welcome. Was going to do so earlier and got on to other distractions. Many ways to skin a cat with GIMP. If you have an example of a bottle cap that you are trying to emulate, please pass on a link; many here will be quite willing to help you on your quest Christine. Just wish you didn't feel the need to purchase a template (from your other post), but if it helps to automate your flow, then the better.

I was new to gimp & had nooo clue how to even attempt anything like this. So I was suckered, LOL. Only issue is, once its made, thats it, no changing it. Ive seen where people change the caps within minutes. What are they doing?? I'll find a link. Thank you Lyle |

I don't know much about bottlecaps and how they should be done, but I think it would really help if you went through AlexStandiford's beginner tutorials, and it would really help us to be able to describe how to do stuff. http://gimpedblog.blogspot.com/ Of course, it would be great to see lesson 1 and 2, but lesson 3 is how to utilize layers, and I think that will help you a lot with making these designs. |
