I have two jpeg images that I can arrange to have the same height. I want to combine then into a single image of the two, side by side. I cannot seem to find a way to do this in GIMP.
Any ideas?
Roughly:
open one image. extend canvas to w*2 x h open the other image. select all. copy. paste into first image, move selection to place at the right location.
Yes, I tried that but after extending the canvas you get the chequerboard area in the 'spare' bit and when you paste and move the second image in it disappears behind the chequerboard - so I am on the right lines but doing something wrong.
Once you've increased your canvas size, you need to select "Image/Flatten Image" in order to drop the first image (which has now become a layer) on to the canvas. In doing so, you should see the "spare" background change from chequerboard to your default bg colour (normally white). The whole image then becomes available to paste your copied image2 in to.
