Hi! I love this tutorial, but as I'm new to Gimp, I keep stuffing it up... just before, I used the paths tool (the one that looks like an ink pen) to outline a picture as you did. I (think) I set up all the things properly, and then once I'd spent half an hour outlining it I wasn't sure what to do, so I clicked away. And then nothing came up. All my outlining was gone. Can you help me with this??

I can't wait to try using this! i'm stuck on a computer without GIMP for now, but once i get my desktop pc and my GIMP back, i'm using this ^.^ do you want me to credit you when i use this?

OK im new to the whole Gimp thing @~@
The information was very helpful
But instead of making layers I just went and did the line over the sketch.
My only question is, how do you get of the sketch layer?
Im so sorry if this question bugs Im a newbie to this :iconOTLplz Ive only ever use my PAINT to color my art in and stuff either that or I just "sketch"

See the box to the left that says "Layers, Channels, and Paths"? Look at the icons just below it. To the far left is the layers tab. Click on it and all the layers should pop up. Just select a new layer by clicking on it.

I actually agree, I was starting to think I was just too dumb to understand it..

Wow... I needed this soooo... bad....
I guess when you use a program you learn to overlook buttons.
I am NEVER overlooking 'paths' ever again!
Thank you SO MUCH!

Thanks so much, hey i have a question, i am a newbie to this so yeah. So i was tracing over an image, and i used the path tool, and when i finished it, i tried to move the trace over to a blank layer. I have the layer on transparent and i deleted the background image. This worked for me before, but i cant get it to work with the path tool :S. Can you help? Thanks
