This is how you do a tutorial. Nice and simple, confident, clear, and on-point. Nice one :)

[@VirtualPhilosopher69]

I got confused 2 minutes into the vid, but it's great stuff

[@cpdexterhuxley]

The Alpha to Selection command is a quicker way to select all the non-transparent pixels on a layer (5:10). You can find it by right-clicking on the layer in the Layer dialogue, or from the menubar (Layer > Transparency > Alpha to Selection).

[@symamaisonsbois2281]

So much valuable information in a short video! Thanks a lot!

[@digidownlo]

Hi, great video thank you. I learnt new things. Do you have a video showing how to create a glistening effect. e.g an image that looks like it's got tiny white dots that flicker like stars, making the image looks like it's sparkling.

[@YTlonewolf777]

you should make this video addable to playlists I'm building a Gimp lesson guide so I can always refer back to it and this glow video is so awesome! thanks.

[@TutsByKai]

Not sure what you mean? You should be able to add this to a playlist. It should also be embeddable. And thanks for your comment!

[@user-mr5pu8zg2m]

It would be nice if you took that knight's helmet and made the front visor see through.

[@diamondgamerboy7850]

For me when i do the dodge mode i used the same color but it becomes green and not orange
Edit: i tried it with different colors and it is the same so only orange is weird but i dont have a free select tool so i had to draw the lighter layer.

[@Phaimanhchannel]

[@samuca780]

Hello, man. Send-me this image in original?

[@vkaa3k190]

You jump all over the place and you don't really explain the need for so many layers. I don't see a reason why you need so many layers, why can't you do it all in one? It's very confusing.

[@TutsByKai]

The reason is simple, what if you want to change something or move something around later? Obviously you couldn't if everything is glued to the same layer!

[@vkaa3k190]

@@TutsByKai How is this better than simply choosing a paint brush and adjusting its opacity and size?

[@TutsByKai]

@@vkaa3k190 I'm not sure how that applies, as you still wouldn't be able to edit or move separate objects around since everything is on the same layer. Opacity and size doesn't replace are brush settings, not a replacement for layers. Think about it like a blender. If you put strawberries, bananas, and kiwis in a blender and blend them, you can't get the individual fruits back. But if you keep them in separate containers, like layers, you can eat each one individually.

[@jaxsharp]

Using multiple layers is like , the standard/proper way to do any kind of editing lol

[@vkaa3k190]

@@jaxsharp I've gotten similar results to his without using those layers. Layers are definitely needed, but not here. He made a simple task much more complex.
