I am so confused I have looked at random help things online but I can't figure it out. I am trying to add layers that are different dimensions into my project and have them not get cropped into the first layer size or have a large white background if the picture is smaller than the first image layer size. how the heck can I just have different dimensioned / sized layers please help im so confused I dont know if anyohne is going to see this or rspond in a dtimely manner but fingers crossed I guess thank you!
Usually best to start with the largest image, so that subsequent layers do not fall outside the canvas size.
Can be fixed by Image ->
Fit Canvas to Layers
Excess borders ? For a completed image, why not just crop it ? Or, if there are transparent borders,
Image -> Crop to Content
Then for a layer, there is the same
Layer -> Crop to Content
If you are getting white borders then somewhere along the workflow, add transparency to the layer
Layer -> Transparency -> Add Alpha Chanel
All sorts of combinations of those. Some examples:
