-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 FWIW, which may not be much, there is a pretty good book on the current version of Gimp It's called _Beginning Gimp: From Novice to Professional_ by Akkana Peck. The previous books I've read have all been unhelpful recitations of the functions behind the menu choices and the tools. But this book actually tells you how to do some actual projects. Here is a link to it on Amazon. http://tinyurl.com/3ytx6e Dave Phillips wrote: > Greetings: > > Is it possible for the Gimp to be more obtuse ?! > > I have an image. I want to add simple text to it.
