Hope I explain this correctly. I want to put an image onto an image of a bus, so it follows the contours of the bus. Just as the cinema ads do on buses.

For more look on deviantart and search for albatrash.

Hi guys, 

the concrete links and stuff are only an example to explain the task.

For an animated Gif, I would like to use this zoo image as background, which must be visible in the background for the whole time the animation plays.

I want to run the smiley 2 animation (s2) near the lion and the smiley 4 animation (s2) near the elephants head.

So when you play the animation, s2 and s4 starting their movement SIMULTANEOUSLY.

Now, the only way to achieve this known to me is manually:

Have the zoo image as background layer.
Paste s2, its 7 layers will be visible in the layers pattern dock above zoo layer and named frame 1 (1ms) replace, frame 2 (1ms) replace...
Move every layer manually near the proper XY position near lion.
Duplicate background layer 7 times, move each duplicate below one of the frames, merge frames down to background.
Rename all the background, background copy1,... into frame 1 with lion smiley (1ms) replace, frame 2 (with lion smiley 1ms) replace...

I do hope this descirption does not confuse!!!

For the other animated smiley:
Paste s4, its 7 layers (named frame 1 (1ms) replace, frame 2 (1ms) replace...) will be visible in the layers pattern dock above frame 1 with lion smiley (1ms) replace, frame 2 (with lion smiley 1ms) replace,...
Move every layer of the s4 animtion manually near the proper XY position near the elephant. Merge down frame 1 (1ms) replace onto frame 1 with lion smiley (1ms) , merge down frame 2 (1ms) replace onto frame 2 with lion smiley (1ms)  and so on.

Sounds like A LOT OF MANUAL WORK , and this is only for describing, the actual project might use animations with 40 frames.

I was also looking for some online gif software, but did not any helpful for my task. 
1.Is there a magic gimp script / way or other software to help with the whole problem?Also very helpful to know: 
2. After loading the background png, how to paste the animated gif and its 7 layers NOT IN THE CENTER, but at a certain XY position, so all the 7 frames are automatically pasted at that XY position.
3. How to AUTOMATICALLY merge 7 frames down to the background image, so they are still 7 frames and the background image is dispayed in every frame.
 
I really do hope you understand what I want to say, let me rephrase if not! 

Thanks in advance for any effort!

Help/suggestion how to make these images more similar

I'm looking for help/suggestion on how to make these two images appear more similar.
The arrow(click) image seems to be thicker and brighter than the finger(touch) image.
What do you suggest? And what would be the easiest way to accomplish your suggestion, please.

(- and maybe also turn the finger so it is diagonal like the arrow?)

Morning. 

I created a drawing (6"x 4") on a white back ground, then I resized the canvas to a much larger size (A3) the drawing is now in the top left corner, how do I move it around to where I need it to be? 

Kind Regards

Thomas.

I've been using, and liking, the version of GIMP packaged and distributed as a Portable App.  I'm also experimenting with my own, home made, portable version of 2.9.x.  I like having the help installed along with GIMP.  Is there a way to do this without using the Windows Installer?

On my Windows 7 system, GIMP seems to assume that pictures are located in a folder named C:\user\name\Pictures no matter where they really are.  Windows, I believe starting with Vista, began using a concept called Libraries within which user data (i.e., documents, pictures, music, video, etc.) is stored.  While the default location is on the C: drive (i.e., system partition), the user can relocate them to another drive/partition.  This was also true of the "My Documents" folder on Windows systems prior to Vista.  In order to make my systems less fragile I've always located this user data (i.e., work product) on a different partition than the one containing the frail Windows system.

It would very desirable if GIMP could use/recognize these libraries rather than assume something that is not always correct.

Gimp selects the Airbrush tool on startup. I'd much rather start with a non-destructive tool like Rectangle Select. Is there a way to do that?

I have a thing for the "inline code" in markdown. So I have added it equivalen on gimp-forum.net. Text surrounded with backticks is:

• shown in a fixed size font
  
• included in a box, like this
