    Default I'm another newbie

    Hi,
    I love making maps especially fantasy maps and I have limited knowledge with GIMP but I have an art background so any help would be appreciated in the future. Love the art work on this forum really inspiring stuff. Cheers everyone.

    Hi Angus, welcome to the Guild.

    There are a lot of tutorials to get started with Gimp. Take a look at this post which lists a few. There's also a load of downloadable PDFs to try. Even if you're not overly keen on the style of map in the tutorial, it's worth your time working through a few of them as they'll teach you skills that you can use again and again in your own maps. If you have little experience with image editing software, probably best to head for YouTube and search for 'Gimp tutorials' and watch a few aimed at beginners to learn a little about the tools.

    If you're stuck with something, just start a thread and ask your question. I'm sure someone can help. Good luck!
