I'm by no means an expert and there might be a better way to do it, but what I would do is, open the second xcf file then simply copy/paste the layers you want from that xcf to the one you're working on.

Actually, rather than copy/pasting, with both files open it would be much faster to drag and drop layers from one to the other.

Just pick the layer thumbnails on the Layers dialog, and drag them to a display of your second-image. Or drag to the toolbox to create a new image.

Or, if you have GIMP 2.2, just open the second XCF from the first one using "File->Open as Layer".

already thx when will the gimp 2.2 windows version come out ?

When 2.2 comes out, plus the time it takes the maintainer to prepare the installer.

BTW, you're still not quoting correctly :)

HTH, Michael

You're supposed to quote the parts of the message you're referring to, keep the relevant attribution lines ("xyz wrote:") intact, and delete non-relevant parts (for example the signatures or ads added by mailing lists).

Everyone else should live by these rules also, of course. Repeated failure to do so could get you into killfiles, and that's a place where you don't want to be (reading about killfiles and their purpose is left as an excercise to the reader).

HTH, Michael

why do you use signatures in a mailing list ? it would be alot more quotomtic if everybody leave them out.

Getting off topic here, I appreciate Michael's efforts, but it appears Gert is not getting it.
