This tutorial shows again which great things you can do easily with The Gimp. Also it is my 2nd Tutorial. Have a good time with it !

  1. Create a new file with the size 500x500 Px (size doesn't matter but it has to be square)
  2. Choose any color gradient and use the same parameters as in the image below.
