There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.

If you download one of my tutorials and it's in html format, there's a folder within the zip file that contains all the pictures you need.  However, there is one little, uh BIG, requirement: You have to place the folder of pictures in the same location that you put the html file.  For example, if you put the html file on your desktop, you MUST put the folder containing the pictures on your desktop.  Then, open up the html file (double-click it) and the pictures will be there.  The instructions are always listed in the deviation description, but nobody likes to read those.

wow there's something else beside the deviation on those pages? I've not noticed that  ;) wow who'd thunk it there's words too as well as pictures on them  DA pages

i'm still trying to figure this one out.   step 9 is sort of confusing me. I'm just using the Filters> Light and Shadow > Drop Shadow. It looks like the thing you used on yours so I'm going with that.  step ten is a wee bit of info overload with all the layers.

Ok think I figured it out now. And I put the background on invisible to show the boxes. It doesn't say to do that in the tut, so I figured you forgot to say so.

Sorry you had trouble with the tutorial.  The GIMP menus have changed considerably since I wrote it in 2006.  Just haven't had the desire to update it, but probably should.

I don't quite follow you here.  Basically I'm just telling you to repeat the steps as many times as you want.  Are you suggesting I should remove the final screenshot in that step that shows all the layers?

You're correct, it doesn't say that. My apologies.  It is implied at the end of step 9 when I state, "This is my result so far.  I’ve turned the background layer off so you could see it without any difficulty."  Because I turned the background layer off and never turned it back on, by saving it as a png or gif, I only had to specify to save the background as transparent in the Save Dialog.

I'd rate you as an upper-middle-lower-mod with pro-novice-inter tendencies.....and a twist of lime!  Of course, my rating scale is completely objectively subjective, but ALWAYS consistently inconsistent.

no it's just me and my oddly wetwired brain. info overload with all the squares and such in my gimp. I trimmed down on the amount I did to keep it simple.
