It's ok, I found it difficult at first too. If you just go to file-->new, you can open a blank page, or file--> open you can open an existing image. From then on, you just need to get your head around layers, and you're sorted with the basics :lol:

They have now :P

I think you might've set a record for 'Quickest time getting used to GIMP.' Two days or so and you're already making graphics like you've been doing it for years. <_<

I wish I could do that :mellow:

I personally hate tutorials and rarely use them. I prefer to find things out for myself {unfortunately for me, that includes non-computer stuff :mellow: }

Yeah, I've sent him countless PMs and msn e-mails, I can't think where he's got to. Unless he's on a long holiday :$

That's the thing, I remember him saying his family did not have any travel plans. And the sad thing is that I have tried everything and still no Eragon! One of the few things I don't like about this internet friendship thing!

I really do hope he is OK! My imagination is starting to go wild with different scenarios!

A bit off topic though, lets make a topic about it in chat or something ;)
