GIMP Version: 2.8.4
Operating System: Windows
OS Version: Mac 10.6
GIMP Experience: Intermediate Level

Hi!

I was wondering if someone would be so kind in helping me out. I recently got GIMP 2.6.8, and I wanted to create a new layer using the tool bar buttons at the bottom of the layers window. No matter what I do the buttons aren't active so I cant use the short cut. Is there a way to make it so its clickable short cut from the tool bar button permantly? Any help is greatly appreciated. I also have included a picutre.

Do you have loadedcreated an image first (File/Open or File/Create)? These buttons aren't enabled until you have created/loaded an image (in other words, you cannot use them to create the first layer).
