    Please, can somebody help me on this? I opened GIMP today and there were no tabs for anything. I could select options but I couldn't lower opacity, fade out, etc. Can somebody help me with this?

    Thanks.

    Well, you eaither:
    A: close GIMP and start it again
    or
    B: Find out what the tab shortcuts are and bring them up again.
    the layers Dialouge is Control+L I believe.

    K thanks for that. >< It got kinda annoying doing my work without being able to choose different things besides brushes and colors.

    EDIT: Oh em gee, Tool Options!

    Geez, that happened to you to?!

    It's bugging the crap out of me for the past few months! I thought I was all alone!

    But yeah, just use tool options. I preferred it as a big long thing, but whatevs.

    <_< I think it took me a day to realize that Tool Options thing. Or maybe like an hour....I'm just confused. Well, I'm back up and better than ever.

    I just found this solution:

    Download the GIMP installer and install it each time when you want to use Gimp. It might be a bugger, but it gives Gimp the full thing so... yeah.

    Yeah that works. But I think the brushes and patterns leave as well.

    You can always double click each feature =\

    Oh, okay. But since I'm clueless and so noobalicious I dunno how to download brushes, and I'm fine the way it is.

    Thanks for your help though guys.
