Hello Blighty
Than you for your file.
I spent some time this afernoon to view some other different video tutorials (in french as it is my mother langage).
The goal is to understand why I do not make it in a good way for a basic operation. I don't like when I don't understand

It seems I get some (more) important information about Gimp that are really different eslwhere. Maybe I will be better in some days

In the meantime you file will help me to test or modify more quicly.
Thank you very much.

looks like you have closed the tool options, always a sign of trying to look like PS. Never a good idea
Thank you so much for this I will have a look immediately


About PS, I do not use it at all, not because I don't like it or I am "anti MS", it is just too expensive for me and don't need to hack something if it exist other possiblities.
Exept this job that is something I have proposed to my colleagues, on a personnal point of view it would be great if I can learn enough to manage my personnal picture (from my Canon I am not a graphist geek).
Depending the need I use different windows tools already and will continue, but Gimp may become a alternative for advanced modification, why not

Thank you again and probably see you all soon

4 minutes later

I will look at it again (and slowly) but this is exactely what I need !

I notice some little differences with what I did, so I will examine this now and follow the tuto..
Again thank you to you (and everybody here)
