Layer Outline Script

[webgoddess]

I have an outline Layer Script which does exactly what you are talking about in this tutorial. I am pretty sure that I downloaded it, but I can't remember what website I downloaded it from. Sorry. In the comments of the script it says:
A set of layer effects script for GIMP 1.2

That should help you find it online. I used it with two icons and so you can see how it looks. Here are the samples:

Ahh, awesome. I'm not really into the scripts (atleast the ones that came default with Gimp) but the one you have seems to do the job well. If I come accross it one day, i'll post the link incase anybody else is interested ^_^

Thanks so much! I feel accomplished! Got the base from Spareoom.net and the texture from the same place you did.

Wonderful tut, excellent result =)

Might I enquire as to where you get your pictures? I've never been able to find a good source for pics of Ville =\

This is going to seem like a really stupid question...but how do I view my layers? I accidently shut that little window that you view them in, and now I can't figure out how to get them to come back.

I'm sorry for asking such a dumb question, but I didn't know where else to ask this.
