I half expect someone to say how easy this is but I'm trying to join three photos together to form one jpg file. Easy to do in OO. In GIMP, I have no idea and the tutorial page doesn't seem to say anything on the topic. Help.
Start with a new blank image, make it bigger than all three images put together.
Then open the first photo in GIMP and do Edit -> Copy.
Then back to the blank image and do Edit -> Paste Into
You can then scale / move the photo around and eventually anchor it in place. To make things easier later on, instead of anchoring the image to the background, hit the "New Layer" icon and you'll be able move the first image around on the background even after you've pasted the last image as they'll all be seperate layers.
Hope this helps, Simon
