— I was asked to provide a basic explanation of Layers…I hope this helps. Sorry about the lag between audio and video…slightly annoying, I know.

GREAT Tutorial!!
@jeffdobbelf OMG I JUST DID THIS, like five minutes ago … wtf -_-
I have just started using gimp for e-covers. At first i had a very difficult time, and watched other tutorials, many were hard to understand. I have found your tutorials to be very simple and a wonderful help. thank you
FINALLY someone explains layers! thanks so much!
i closed my lathers window how do i open it?
Downloaded Gimp last night, ideal introduction for me. I want to do the steriotypical mono picture with target part in colour so this has made that obtainable as a starting project. Thankyou for posting
@jeffdobbelf hahaha yeah I did that too!
thanks for taking the time – I am a beginner. I cant find my layers under file dialogue, create. Wondered if you could help?
Well done… thank you!
Dude, you are a life saver. It’s funny how the concept of something so simple eluded me. I am a “real” artist so I always hated computer programs, but I think it’s time to shed my close minded background and get with the times. Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial!
best layers tutorial, thumbs up if you agree
great tutorial. and perfectly pitched at a novice – such as myself who hand draws and uses collage. i am now signing up to your channel/other tutorials – thanks
