How to make a sigbox

umm what's gimp?

[eliethewolf]

GIMP stands for GNU Image Manipulation Program. Its like a free version of photoshop and can be downloaded here.

[sarcasteil]

does it have viruses or stuff like that?

[eliethewolf]

Not if you get it from the website above. Its safe and used by many people.

so i downloaded gimp and now i'm totally lost.. first of all how do you insert the image?!

[eliethewolf]

You just open the image in GIMP, same as you would in paint

[sarcasteil]

i don't know how to DX

i don't know how to DX

Okay so do you have the image saved onto your desktop? If you do, open gimp.
1. Go to File > Open > and find your image name, then click open or okay (I forget)

If you do not have it saved onto you desktop and have a Mac

Simply drag the image over the GIMP icon. (if you have Windows I am unsure if you can do that)

Hope this helps

[sarcasteil]

yes! thank you!

I'm having trouble with this... whenever I go to do the "paste as new image" step, a little Gimp message pops up saying...

"There is no image data in the clipboard to paste."
