What i suggest is just to create the "no sign" in a new file, with transparent background. Then copy and paste it in a new layer on top of the other picture:Hello,
I've only used gimp a little bit but need to teach an autistic child to not run into the street and other things.
To do that, I need to take pictures and then super-impose a basic no sign (like you see for no-smoking) over it.
Any suggestions for how to do that. I am going through the gimp help browser now but have basically no idea. I _really_ appreciate it.
1. When viewing the picture, click Layer --> add new layer.
2. Open the "layers" dialog: Dialogs --> Layers
3. Select the new layer.
4. Paste the sign;
5. Resize it to what you need.
That should do it. However, I'm saying it from the top of my head, so you may have to go trough a couple more (or less) steps than this.
