really looks like more of a squircle
OoOOoO
I dont get it
- Type letter ‘c’ using the text tool, as you’ve already done
- Create a new layer from text
- Duplicate layer
- Transform - flip horizontally
- Merge two layers
It’s a basic GIMP knowledge, really. Don’t forget to add an alpha channel to your layer after step 2, otherwise it won’t work.
Why would you do this when the functionality is built right in?
- Open Photoshop
- Select the Ellipse Tool
- Draw a Circle of Your Choosing
- Press Print Screen on Your Keyboard
- Voila! A Fresh Circle to Paste/Insert Into Your GIMP Project!
Just use Paint and do it within seconds.
Don’t forget to draw the rest of the owl, too!
I drew some circles in Gimp once, check it out:
Squares and triangles too
does GIMP not have a circle/shape tool? Why?
It does! And it’s so easy to use.
- Draw a circle with the ellipse selection tool
- From the edit menu choose “stroke selection” and follow the dialogs
- Remove your selection
It’s so obvious I can’t imagine why anyone would be confused.
Draw a circle with the ellipse selection tool
So it does have what is effectively a circle shape tool. I don’t know why people are saying it doesn’t.
