[NittoFrost]

[MLGvTwisteD]

[0BrokenAnimeDreams0]

[catlover19989]

[Xinuzuka96X]

Great tutorial! Very helpful, and descriptive :D

[albi6822]

Great video. You know your stuff. I am new to Gimp and you really helped me out. Good production value too.

[COCOLATE135]

ty so much!!! i needed this!! But 1 question, If you wanted to add a picture would you just add another layer to the icon?

[StepbyStepTutorials]

My toolbar at the side, where you can change opacity and select layers is not there. How do i get it up?

[GraphikzHD]

Not bad, i like the quality, your accent! your good with gimp, i can tell good job!

[MadWeaponsProduction]

Whta screen rscorder u use?

[marquesbrownlee]

@MadWeaponsProduction Camtasia Studio.

[MoviesAndTuts]

dude this is the best tutorials ever thanks i subbed!! :D!!

[cillian022]

how do you change the shape of a picture imported from the internet i made a shield but the photo i want wont fit in

[SkipCube]

Hey Please REspond i have a question when i go to gimp and i try to make The X transparent i dont have that toolbar what do i have to do?

[marquesbrownlee]

@SkipCube I'm not sure why you don't have the standard toolbar! Try asking someone like 'techtonicc' who's REALLY good with Gimp. Tell him I sent you! =]

[AppleBoy153]

@SkipCube Go to Windows Then Dockable Dialogs and pick one and it will come up

[TippingTips]

@SkipCube go to the windows tab, select it , then go to 'recently closed docks' any closed tool bars will be there :)

[FruityProds]

Hmm why cant I change my text font?

[MaTTh3WSkAt3]

How do you lower the opacity? It just shows the colors and the size options

[marquesbrownlee]

I think on the upper right hand side, you can change the opacity of the layer with a slider

[SpaceOz08]

how did you put the channel icon in a video like the one in the corner of this vid

[marquesbrownlee]

I used the watermark feature in Camtasia Studio 6

[kingluigi99]

[akskaran100]

[marquesbrownlee]
