To crop, you can use paint, or use this simple method. Ok, first get out your image, then:

1. Go to image
2. then go to Scale image.
3. From there, you press the unchain button, and type in what you want to use as your banner size! have fun!

actually, i don't want to take it to paint, because it won't accept .xcf files, and makes it not-HD-ish... o:

To crop with Gimp go to the tool box and choose crop image. Then, you crop the image by making a box the size you want and press enter. If the image is to big then scale the image by going to Image > Scale Image and choose the size you want.

I hope this helps! :)

it does, but do you know how to make borders? Is it just a line, or something more complicated?
and what is the size for banners at Environ?

To make a border go to Select > All > Border and then choose the size you want. After that color in the border with the paintbrush.

I'm not sure about the banner size thing. I'm guessing 800x350?

Hmm... Interesting piece of graphics you made, Ashan. I'm more of an Abode person myself, so don't use GIMP.

I like it. But the dinosaur needs to be more... in sync with the background. It all seems out of place. :P I like how you used the shadow, most people would of over-looked that. Next think of extras like more custom scenery, which can easily be google'd, and I said before, make that Dino be part of the forest. Also, I relies the legs aren't showing any weight, as it is on-top of the grass, not in.

Thats the point! So later on, when you have more time, you can do the stuff I said:p

Don't take this offensively, please.
