Anyone here familiar with The Gimp?
Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Last time I checked, Thunderbird couldn't do that.
I don't think it does, but I just always remove messages from the server so I don't know for sure.

Hey. New board.
A bit, Tommy. How much familiarity are you looking for?
If I can't help, Grokking the Gimp probably can.

Thanks for the link. I use the Gimp for very basic stuff, but I wouldn't claim to know anything about doing real work in it.

I need to make an image wider. But not scale it. Basicaly I need to cut it in half and stick stuff in between the two pieces to make it wider.
So I increased the canvas size (Made it wider). Then I copied a section on the right and pasted it on top of the original. Now I try to move the copied section onto the new (expanded) canvas aread but it doesn't show up there.
When I increased the canvas area, did I actually increase the size of the image? If not, how do I do that? If so, why can't I move a selection onto the new canvas?

Hey. New board.
Probably because the layer your original image is on isn't the size of the full image. Play around in your layer dialog - you may need to make a new background layer and copy the image to it, or maybe just uncheck the "keep transparent" box.

Yeah, I just started messing around with layers. It's the "layer boundry size" that I needed to change. Thanks!

I just realized I now have eight computers at home. I might be a geek.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

You just noticed this, Mr. I'm A Mad Scientist Building A Rocketship In The Back Yard?

A friend of mine asked me how many computers I have. I said I don't know, because it depends... do I count my vintage laptops? My vintage pocket computer? My vintage laptops that are dead? Newer computers that are dead? Computers that are in various states of disassembly? And re: computers in various states of disassembly - how do I count those? By how many computers I could make if I put all the parts together?
