Ok, did you open your glitter tile (found in the Glitter Links board)? After you have changed the mode to RBG, go to Dialogs > Create New Dock > Layers, Channels, and Paths. Here you will see the different layers for the image that you have currently open. To change the name of a layer, double click on it and a box will come up. Just type in the name that you want and push ok.

Hm... This is odd! I think the step that I mess up at is where you are supposed to drag the layer fill over your text. I do just that, except it covers the whole thing, not just the text. Then I re-did the whole thing, but this time at that step, I selected the text. Except it started flashing black at some times...!!  Help, please. |
