How do i do this with the gimp?

[NoTiG]

Just curious on how something like this is done:http://www.taimila.com/me.php

I can see that the picture is facing forwards... but the border is cut and angled slightly to make it look slanted. How do you do that , or is the only way manually?

I managed to do it using this (http://www.taimila.com/images/maarit.jpg) picture. (See attatched).

All I did was open the pic in Gimp, highlight all (Ctrl+A). Then from the main Gimp window I selected the "Perspective" tool (last one on second row). Then I dragged down from the top right corner then up from the bottom right corner. Then when you're happy, click transform.

Hope that helps, Rowan.

should this maybe be in the artwork forum ?
