Re: [Gimp-user] Adding a text box

As Tom said:
Do you mean for a caption or something?  Have you tried extending the
canvas size, of your photo, and adding a text layer in the newly created
space?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do this:
• Image > Canvas Size
• Add some inches to the height (be sure to UNLINK the two measurements)
• Resize layers > NONE
• Fill with > White (your choice)
• DO NOT check "Fill with"
• Resize

Type text on the white bar at the bottom.

Subject: [Gimp-user] Adding a text box

Hi Folks,
I am wondering if it is possible to attach a text box  to the outside of a
photo, for photos that don't have room to place a text box inside the
confines of the picture.

Thanks,

Stan
