Layer Mask help

edit:

I do not think this is the way web pages work however, this is the way Gimp works
-------------------

Make a template, where the colours are easily changed, you find them all the time for all sorts of items.

First, did you understand about a layer mask being black and white ? Did you follow adding the mask to a layer ? Did you get the bit about inverting the layer mask colour to show / hide opposite parts of the layer?

That latest image is very small, the logo would have to scaled down from 3000 pix wide to about 150 pix - too much. Try and find a larger background image.  I scaled up by about x2 but if you can work on a larger basic good quality image, much better.

Then it is just two layers for the colours you want to use. One layer with the outline mask (as the video) and another (made the same way) for a back ground colour.  No need for a layer group, but that is what they are there for.

   

attached that example, just open it in Gimp.
