    ACTIVITY 2

    2.1: Creating a new image (from scratch).


    Select File > New
    At this point, choose the following parameters:
    Width: 960 px
    Height: 540 px
    Advanced options: Fill with: White

    Save the file as surname_activity2.xcf (xcf is the extension of the GIMP files)

    2.2: Selecting an area and using the bucket


    Choose the “ellipse select tool” and select an area similar to the one on the image:
    We are going to fill in the ellipse with a color. To do this:

    Now we use the bucket fill tool and click in the ellipse:

    Save the file.

    2.3: Changes can be done only in the selected area.


    Change the foreground color to red.
    Select the brush tool and draw some lines crossing the area selected (the ellipse). You’ll see that nothing
    is painted out of the ellipse.

    Change the foreground color to blue.


    Deselect everything from the menu: Select > None
    With the brush tool again, draw something crossing the ellipse and see the difference.

    Save the file.
