text decoration

Hey guys,

I was wondering, is there a way to "style" text like you can in photoshop ie add gradients, patterns, outlines, etc?

probably a retarded question but asking anyways :P

thanks!

Oodles of ways, actually. Start by selecting the text. If it's on its own layer, try alpha to selection. Once it's selected, you can fill it with patterns, gradients, or whatever else suits your fancy. For more information, check out the tutorials at

http://www.gimp.org or http://http://gug.sunsite.dk/?

For more examples, look at the script-fu source for the various logos.
