<0> Like reversed or flipped?
<1> uh, where the text is the opposite colour of what is behind it
<0> Well you can just select the color of the text.
<0> Or do you want a border of an opposite color around your text?
<1> well, its to go on somthing that is more than one colour
<0> Ok so to make it more readable I normally go with a border around my text.
<0> So like make the border black if my text is white.



<0> It helps it stand out.
<1> ok
<1> how do i do that?
<0> Just make the text then drag it where you want.
<0> Duplicate that text layer.
<0> Make both of them expand to image size.
<0> The bottom layer in the layer dialog right click and alpha to selection.
<0> grow the selection by one or two pixels.
<1> ah, i see
<0> Drag the color for the border on to it.
<0> Yeah it's pretty simple and helps a heap.
<2> At0mic_PC: does anyone know of a gimp or photoshop tutorial on how to extend a surface area, i have an image with a stucco like wall that fades darker and gets smaller (perspective) from left to right and i want to make the wall longer so as to make the image wider
<0> There is a clone tool.
<2> At0mic_PC: yes but the wall is shaded more to the right then the left and i want to keep that shading consistent while still keeping the texture
<2> any tutorial links?
<0> I don't know.
<0> That's a tough one.
<1> gah, trying to make a readable attractive button for people to link to my site with thats only 88 x 31 is impossible!
<1> are there any, like, guides or something on that?
<0> Try a different font. :)
<0> Well my connection just dropped so I can't even talk now...
<0> Bell south ****s.
<0> Search for pixel fonts.
<1> well, i was hoping to use the same font i use for my main logo



<1> but i have a bad feeling "rage italic" is going to be a bad choice for such a small thing
<0> Try the silk screen fonts.
<0> They seem to be the most popular.
<1> hmm, ok, well, i have got it looking ok, but, i forget, how do you export?
<3> export? You mean save as?
<1> yeah, i just found it
<1> hmm, 4.7kb seems alot for an image that is only 88x31....
<1> ahh, i think i left it at 1000dpi...
<4> How would one go about changing the dpi... I need a psd image in 200 dpi rather than the current 70
<5> rescale the image up
<4> KomiaPoika: eh?
<4> What do you mean?
<6> Jaywalker: how much do you know about dpi?
<4> schumaml: Not too much, never had a problem with it until now as i usually do website images. This is for a T-Shirt for my high school band and the people at the company need 200dpi
<6> this setting is used to get the print size
<6> for example, if you have an image that is x pixels wide and you did specify y dpi (or ppi, that's pixel/inch), you'll get it printed x/y inch wide
<6> y can be change arbitrarily (in gimp, via the image->print size dialog, for example). this changes the value of the x/y fraction, of course
<6> if you want it to remain constant (i.e. have the image print at the same size), you'll have to increase x as well
<6> and this is done by scaling
<6> scale tool, image->scale etc
<5> Jaywalker: use scale image and scale it up 200/70
<5> eg 3x
<4> bah... ok. So just resizing.
<4> Ok, fixed :-)
<5> it wont fix the resolution, but will give them enough matter to work
<6> fixing the resolution is the easier part of this problem, though
<6> KomiaPoika: you're probably referring to the image quality?
<5> don't patronize me
