WIP using RobA's GIMP Tutorial

[Karro]

There are two ways: When you begin a new message, you'll note there are lots of icons above the message area. To the right of the "smiley" is a paper clip icon. Click on that, and you'll get a pop-up box where you can upload your attachments. All attachments will appear as thumbnails if they're over a certain size.

The other way is to look below the message area under the Additional Options. The second box there has a button that says "Manage Attachment" and will open the same box as the paper clip icon does.

If you're editing a message and want to add attachments to it, you'll see a button right next to the Save button that says "Go Advanced." If you click that, you'll get a format that looks just like when you're posting a new message.

If you use the Quick Reply feature, you'll see a "Go Advanced" button there, too, which serves the same pupose as the one in the edit screen.

Thanks! I was hoping I wasn't breaking a rule by posting the whole image instead of just the thumbnail.

Looking good! I look forward to reading about your map as you work through the steps.

Thanks. So far, I'm really satisfied with the progress I'm making. I'm working on these two maps primarily as practice--neither is of anyplace in particular, and the shapes and designs are just a test to see how the random coast generation method RobA describes will interact with a more or less specific coastline shape.

I'm a little concerned how this is going to go once I try to apply it to the actual world map I've been trying to develop. I have a file I had started working on before discovering cartographer's guild, but at 7200x3600 pix, it's about 50X as large as these files, so I fear I may crash GIMP on my poor laptop entirely once I start using these techniques on it....
