I am running GIMP 2.10.20 (revision 1). I am designing a logo for my boat - the name is Dragon Fire. I have an image of dragon breathing fire, along with the text "Dragon Fire" Rather than having solid color text, I decided to make the text filled with the flame. So I made a new layer and copied the flame into it. The flame has been placed under the text. This flame layer is just beneath the text layer.
I did a rectangular selection of the text (which has a transparent background) and made a mask using the selection. I subtracted this from the flame layer, but got a rectangular product.
How can I turn the text itself into a mask to subtract from the flame?
Thanks,
David
