Textured Forests in GIMP
I put together a little tutorial on how to make a forest like the one shown below. As always, if anyone has questions or suggestions for improvement, I'd love to hear them

Oooooo pretty... I can't rep you because of the rep I gave you for the conversion of Ascension's atlas tut... but THIS is going in my list of ways to do things...
Someday... perhaps someone should go back and put RobA's tutoral(and his mountain tutoral update) and this together as a "revised region tutorial"
Thanks much!
Very nice! I like the initial use of the noise layer to generate the forest outlines!
