GIMP Help
SO I just started using GIMP for making banners and I cant seem to get an outline color around my words. Is it possible? I used to use Wordart so that the words could have color and a black outline, can i do that in GIMP?

I have yet to find a way to do this as well. I'm interested in the responses that come.

Free and quite powerful for image editing :D Although hard to get used to if you're accustomed to Photoshop (at least for me).

http://www.obscurasite.com/artstuff/tutorials/gimp-text-outline/ That's the first result on the google page and it tells you how to make the outline o.o

Dmitri, I actually found that if you follow your first link to the site, and then at the bottom of the tutorial follow that link then you get to a page that has a more effective way of outlining :)
