Add Your Own Words

I found this public domain children's book page at Google Books. I'm just learning how to use Gimp(freeware) to manipulate images. Here is an endearing early 20th century drawing of a mother and her children by the fireside. You can add your own words to the blanks; I've blanked out the words. Click on image to enlarge and save.

Is this supposed to be a photoshop type of application? I am amazed by all you can do with technology today.

Yes, it's a freeware photoshop-like app. It's complicated, and I'm still trying to figure it out. There are tutorials on the net, but I haven't gone there yet...not enough time.

I downloaded this from the link. Looks interesting. I love the picture. Thank you for it. I will use it for something.

Have a great day!
