I want to make sure I don't post any private information.

If you export a flat file: PNG, JPEG, GIF (and some others), what you
see is what you get.  Bear in mind that the erase tool can be used with
pressure (i.e. not 100%).  You can see that effect as it takes several
scrubs to make something fade away.  Alternatively, you can draw full
black, full white, or copy the background colour of what you're
scratching out, to be sure to obliterate details.

If you save a file with layers, like GIMP's own format, there's every
chance that you've drawn on top of a layer that could be removed to
reveal what was under it.  Though, you can merge layers, so that can't
be done.


Hi Tim,

Thank you!

I will just draw a black box across it and export to a png

:-)
