Hi all,

Eons ago I used Adobe PS and could do the basic task but have not been able to figure out how to do this in GIMP.

I need to do what I assume is a simple copy of one image and past it on top/into another.
What I need to do is take image of bat call pulses and paste it into another blank image with frequency lines as the background.

This show predicted call frequencies for species not yet known.

Seems the repetitive task will serve my needs but clearly I need a bit of hand holding to master the few steps.  I can not seem to find the correct menu items to select and complete this task.  Once I have the steps I should be able to repeat them as often as necessary.

Tnx for anyone willing to assist.  As the old saying goes"It is never too late to teach an old dog new tricks...it =just takes longer!" ;-)
Cheers

That would just be  Edit > Copy in one image and Edit > Paste in the other. So what is your exact problem?

Removing the "background" from the image to be copied then placing it on a new one and adjusting it to fit.

Well, we are all 'old dogs' here and never many 'old' tricks.

post an image of the bat calls

blank image with frequency lines as the background.

post an image of the background and I am sure someone will help.
