Need assistance for "simple" copy and paste

Quote:and 4 separate images cropped from the same scale (size) image

What do you lean by "the same scale (size)". Gimp works with pixels. if you copy a 100x100 pixels in one image, it will faithfully paste 100x100 pixels in the target. Zoom doesn't change the count of pixels, it just makes them bigger/smaller. Also, the image definition (DPI) is not taken in account.
