Hi all, just popped over to say hi, I'm lynne & I live in Cirencester uk. I've only just discovered gimp and love the thought of making my own book covers (I write ebooks) & tinkering with my photos. I took a photo not long ago but none of the angles I could find would allow me to shoot without a streetlight right in the middle. Now I can learn to take the light out after I've taken my picture!!

Thanks so much for that lovely welcome! Especially Erisian who has been here! It is really nice to 'meet' you all. I love gimp and all its possibilities, but I found it hard to learn!
Take care all :)

Welcome Lindyloo,
You will find that Gimp will let you do so many incredible things. Gimp Chat will definitely help you to take your ideas and turn them into a visual work of art. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have!

Greg

Thanks for that Greg. Gimp is amazing! As well as ebook covers I have started taking photos which I'd like to learn to change, but for now I need to get some books sorted.
