[Gimp-user] black canvas extension

[EGoldman <forums gimpusers com>]

I am applying on  Zapplication for juried shows for my jewelry . I am a newbie
to Gimp but have mastered most thru trial and error. I really need help at this
point . Pics must be 1920 x1440. I have resized but they also require the canvas
size to be 1920x1920 with black borders. The end result would be that there is
black extension borders filling in the shorter sides. All I keep getting is the
little squares. I have a deadline for this application and I'm hoping someone
could give me some clues on this issue. A BIG Thanks for any suggestions or help
:)
