Best Freeware For Making Sigs

hmm how do i merge layers in gimp?

 

nvm i figured it out
btw thanks cam

 

My latest effort. I tried to go for a painting look - anyone know how to add a neat border to this to complete the effect? (I'm using gimp2.6 btw.)

EDIT: Tried using the stroke selection method but didn't like how the border looked so flat. .

 

Filters - Decoration - Add Border if I remeber it right or sometimes im using selection tool, then inversing it to have a nice selection around the pic. Then you can do whatever you want, fill it, use filter, render smth on it etc.
