Thank you ever so much for you quick reply and all the examples so that I can
save my presets.
This will save me a lot of heartache and will speed up my work.

I'm glad I stumbled upon this forum for those of us that exclusively use Gimp.

I loved Photoshop but when they made it where you have to subscribe and could no
longer purchase the software it turned me against the program.

I started out on Gimp and I can do most of what I need with Gimp.

I would love to see Gimp incorporate the ability to have side by side windows
open at once like in Photoshop.
It is one feature I miss. I can't clone from one window to another like in
Photoshop to replicate a product like I could with Photoshop. It's also great
for comparing an older texture to a new one when creating new textures. I hope I
made sense in conveying that.

Sincerely, 
Edge
