There was recently a *long* thread about image sizes in pixels; print size in inches (or cm) and resolution (dpi). Remember that a bitmap editor such as Gimp works in pixels. See:

1. Use (File > New) to create a new document. See attached image
2. Your 2 images should be preferably be pre-prepaired with correct aspect ratio and correct image size in pixels.
3. (File > Open As Layers) and select your 2 images. They will open as layers, one image per layer.
4. Use the Move Tool to move the image layers into the required positions. Select one layer in the Layers Dialogue, then move it with the Move Tool.
5. If the images were not correct size (2. above) use the Scale Tool to re-size them. In the Tool Options for the Scale Tool make sure that the Keep Aspect is checked.
Remember: scaling an image will result in some loss of quality
