-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The Akkana book says that the floating layers are artifacts of a previous implementation strategy, which the Gimp developers now believe was misguided. They are thinking of removing the floating layers completely, but apparently it's easier to say than to do. I believe, if memory serves, and why should it start now, that she recommends always anchoring a floating layer right away. She also recommends making new layers for everything you can think of. Inkscape is also pretty simple and seems to work well for this kind of simple image manipulation. It's limited, but for simple applications it seems to work well.
