Hello,
I have a GIMP image with three layers of green text and a transparent background. I simply want to add a new white background layer behind them, but when I do, the new layer is green instead of white, and it also appears to be in the front even though it shows as the bottom layer in the Layer Window. This, of course, causes the three original layers to be hidden.
I've tried using the Fill Tool to change this layer to white, but it doesn't work (the layer stays green, very close to the color of the other three layers). I've even tried exporting it as a .jpg file but when it is flattened the solid green layer still covers the original three layers.
This seems like such a simple task, but I'm running out of ideas. Any suggestions welcome!
Thanks.
