you open up the picture of the model in a new document and copy (ctrl c) and paste (ctrl z) onto the picture of the background.

Nice tut. But personally I don't think that JPG is the best format for saving pictures in good quality, I always use PNG (and .xcf of course).

skateishh In reply to LaMantha [2008-06-07 19:29:36 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!
Oh yeah I use png for certain things, but jpg is just something I use more often. I've also found its a pretty general thing that a lot of people use so I thought it may be helpful for people to know if they have never done gimp before and don't really know what to use for saving options.
