Help in placing object behind trees |

Hi!
I am very VERY new to GIMP, so I apologize ahead for dumb questions.
I tried looking for youtube guides on my problem, but couldn't find anything useful.
Here's image of the forest I have:
https://ibb.co/DDMFP2X
I want to place this object behind the trees, on the far side, so it's barely visible (blur it with the foggy lightning too)
https://ibb.co/JkSVY5m
However, I encountered problems immediately as I have problems getting the "object" behind the trees - magic wand doesn't help as it the fog messes up tree silhouettes to select them and the copypaste above the "object".
Should I use a mask? If yes, what kind of and how? (I know how to create masks, but don't understand how to use this function in this case if it is even applicable at all)
Please, point me in a direction of a guide on how this is done or explain yourself - I appreciate ANY help
Thank you!

Rearranging the dialog boxes |

I HATE single-window mode, is there any way to make deactivating that PERMANENT, or am I stuck changing that setting every time I bring up Gimp?
Having the Brushes-Layers dialog box with the rarely-used Brushes and patterns on top and the constantly-used Layers on the bottom is such a nightmare that I'm still using 2.82 for every possible thing. Please tell me there's a way to rearrange it the way it is in 2.82, with the layers/channels/paths half on TOP... and ideally KEEP it that way?

Nitroshare alternative |

I'm using nitroshare for many years tto transfer files and directories directly between our computers on the same wifi and it was working perfectly, just drag and drop chose the computer in the list and ➤ done but I recently upgraded my kids computer to MX 21.1 and nitroshare seems to not detect the other computer on the same wifi, as well as not maintained any more (although if it works i'm ok with that, but it does not work)...
Do you know an alternative?

Automatically write filename on a set of images |

Dear All,
I am new in this forum. I write a topic because I would ask if it is available a Script-Fu (of Python-Fu) which generates a specific set of operation made automatically.
I have a lot of images, with specific filename.jpg (or filename.png, or any extension).
I would like to:
- Open them one by one;
- Write on a specific position (which is always the same for every image) the filename without the extension ("filename"), with a specific size/color, font, etc;
- Save it and close;
Is there any Script-Fu able to doing this?
Is there an official repository of ready to use
Script-fu (or Python-Fu) scripts?
Thank you in advance for every reply!

bizarre pixel brush - how to recreate? |

hello! i use gimp as my primary drawing tool, and while trying to make a lazy 2 pixel large square brush using the clipboard (drawing a two pixel large square, copying it to my clipboard, and just using it as a brush like that) i ended up getting some incredibly bizarre brush behavior out of it.
the brush i created acts something like a weird in-between of 1px and 2px, but only when i'm using the version directly from the clipboard - if i select clipboard mask, the brush acts the way i had expected it to in the first place.
![[Image: brush%20weirdness.png]](https://wrongwarp.neocities.org/personal/brush%20weirdness.png)
now, i actually rather like this bizarre and crunchy looking brush, but there's a bit of a problem: i can't change its color until after it's on the canvas (i could also, of course, change the color of the 2px square on the clipboard and copy that, but that's a few extra steps that can add up to a LOT of extra time spent...). i can change the color of the clipboard mask version of the brush, but that looks completely different!
i don't really entirely understand how brushes on gimp work, so perhaps i'm missing something obvious here, but - is it possible to get the look of the brush on the LEFT side of the image but still have the ability to pick its color?
