I'm going to have to copy this I think...I was doing OK until I saved for the first time - then I lost the texture background completely!

[nickygabriel]

The file has to be

.xcf

Otherwise you will lose all the layers except for one that is on the top.

[provencepuss]

I binned that and will start again....

WooHooo.. did it! But I used Photoshop bcause for some reason the clone stamp in GIMP didn't work.. I did some other changes on the way.. and used Starsky instead of Hutch- Will post it shortly.. Thanks a bunch Nicky!

Photoshop has more options to play with and you can save your images in CMYK mode, but I can't afford this program so I use the free one :)

Now I know how to use layers and textures!! I wanted to make wallpapers using them and had no idea how to make it!
The tutorial is great!
