The only problem im am having is when i copy and paste after streching and skewing the white background still shows up. How do i change that? or get it to where it doesnt?

You have to remove the background yourself either using the magic wand tool (the quick, easy way) or using the lasso and zoom tool to cut it out yourself (the clean way).

All you have to do is move the brushes files to
C:\\Program Files\\GIMP-2.0\\share\\gimp\\2.0\\brushes
and click the refresh button in the brushes dialog.

Don't know why. Are you saving the image Daffy and the Gang and then opening it up as a layer on your sig background? It's a png file that already has the white background removed, so I don't know why it would be showing up on your background with a white area.

I know the tutorial discussed using of MS Paint, but you can do the same thing directly in GIMP, without the Paint step. However, if you still want to use Paint, what format are you saving it in prior to bringing it into GIMP? It needs to be a png or a gif. They are the formats that support transparency.

Great tut. Will definatly use this more than once. I'm not too crazy about it, but here's my result. It seems to have too many white spots. That might have to do with the size of the brush I used in some layer.

EDIT: Added some text and moved the render to cover up the black space. Looks better now.

I posted a sig from a different tut before. The sig you see now is what I made. I like it quite a bit, but it isn't my favorite. I'm going to keep trying it with different renders.

Nevermind, I was being an idiot....got it figured out now.
