GIMP Pic Cutting Tutorial "Pic Cutting 101"

[bobinc]

I dont know how much easier that is, because you use multiple programs. Plus paint has and will mess up pics when you save them as JPG.

i like paint.net cause once i select the 150 by 150 area i can just push one button and it cuts the whole project to that size then i just need to erase and add the background layer and im done

Bobinc, that picture was done on paint AND saved as .jpg. Is it messed up? Paint doesn't mess anything up unless you change the format that it's saved in, and as it was saved in GIMP as a jpeg, there's no problems. The Lordi pics I did ages ago weren't jpegs originally but they came out alright. I just think that doing as little as possible on GIMP is best. It might be good, but it can be complicated when you don't know what you're doing. And this tutorial is for people who don't know what they're doing, right?

This is my first attempt, I used a pic of Lex Luger....

Just gotta say when blowing this up to 400%, his nipples were WAY bigger than they should've been....

Please give me feedback guys

Thats about a good average time for each pic once you get the "Simon Dean Weight Syst... I mean BobInc Pic System down."
