In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to make an image appear three dimensional! :)

1. Open up Gimp and open up an image, any image.
2. Duplicate the image.
3. Go to the bottom layer and click on Colors > Colorize. Match your settings to mine:

4. Click on the eye next to the top layer and make sure your bottom layer looks like this:

5. Now make your top layer visible once again. Go up to Colors > Colorize. Match your settings to mine:

Your top layer should now look like this:

6. Go over to the layer’s palette and lower the opacity of the top layer to 50%, like this:

The image should now look grayish, kind of desaturated, like this:

7. Click on the move tool, , and move the top layer a little to the left or right. Now it should look like this:

Now, you’re finished! Ta-dah! If you have any questions or comment please feel free to post them in the comment section below. :)

Chapter 2: I've been having some trouble trying to download Gimp. The site I think might've changed a bit. And I'm completely lost how to do it. I've tried to download it but I can't open it because it's libgimp and gimp are different versions? Please help T^T
