Forum :: Lounge :: how to use gimp?

Can someone tell me how to use gimp 2.6? and how come i only get 2 boxes but last time it poped up 3? I just download gimp so im not really stable with it. Wheres the button (to edit the dots)to make the armors and weps?

I think Gimp is a very annoying program to pixel with I highly suggest using Graphic gale for that.

It's simple, it has all the features it needs, and prevents you from using smudge tools.

Few questions on graphicsgale:

Can u show me wheres the button to change color XD

Wheres the bucket to change the backround?

How i zoom out?

1 stupid question is tht how do people make their pixels so good? o;

For example, adding stuff (horns, capes etc)

Change to color?
It's on the palette, you can change from CMYK to RGB if you'd like, should be under the palette itself in a tab.
Also you can rightclick to take the color, this way you can work really fast.

The bucket to change the background is the long toolbar above next to the filled oval sign.
Obviously use the magnifying glass also in the toolbar above, it's next to the hand sign.

Also theres an option to use layers, and I think people use that to add things etc so they can easily erase it when something goes wrong.

ima stick to gimp cause im using safe mode and i cant see most parts of graphicsgale
