For the green circles, you might be able to select and copy each of those locations to a new image, and work with the colors, levels, and other settings to see if you can neutralize the green, and then paste that back in to the original image. I don't know exactly what you'd do, but you can tweak the colors that way (you want to make sure you do that after cutting them from the original and putting them on a new layer or new image, otherwise you mess up the colors on the original image).

In this article, the basics of building nice looking background images from a simple colored one with a pattern to multiple sourced bump mapped ones is discussed. The tool used is the GNU Image Manipulation Program also known as the GIMP . A Basic Colored Plasma PatternHow to make a map using GIMP - TribalWars Forum
I know there is already a topic about this by allyboo, but when I started, I used Ally's guide, and found that it lacked some vital information, so I thought I would have a go at one myself - I will post it below The version that I am using is v2.6 , but if you are using a different version, then that is fine as well, it will just look slightly different (to download the latest version, go to Download Gimp ) Twstats Before you can start making maps on Gimp, you need to learn how to use Twstats first. You need to get to the site www.twstats.com , and then from the homepage, select the world that you are on e.g.
Digital photography truly is amazing. Today, a photograph can be manipulated until it doesn't resemble the original photograph at all, and still look remarkably authentic. How do they do that? Well, certainly there are different levels of expertise in digial image manipulation, but The Gimp offers a simple little tool that makes that manipulation easier than most people think. If you notice, there is a water bottle on the rocks on the bottom-left portion of the image, which seems horribly out of place. With digital photography, and a little work, we can make the image above look like the image below.

To paste something into new layer, please use the general method (that is – ctrl+c, ctrl+v) – and after that click “new layer” icon to make a new layer from Floating Selection. We need to cut out some part of the image – so it looks more realistic. We make the layers almost transparent (like 40-50%) – and we cut out some part of wings accordingly to fairy hair. We can also add some shadow on girl’s back. On new layer (between wings and the girl) we draw a shape of the shadow with a Pen.

The default settings has the grid being a bunch of crosses. Nice for drawing, kinda useless for making a dungeon. We need to change this to lines suitable for an (x,y) coordinate grid system. 4 - The default spacing for me was 10 pixels apart.
[Award Winner] Drawing hand drawn maps in Gimp
After foolhardily promising to provide a tutorial for the style of my pirate cove map, and equally foolhardily implying I would pitch in for this month's contest, I have decided to kill two birds with one stone and do my May entry as a tutorial. I have decided to draw a ship-wreck as my tactical encounter map. There seems to be a sea theme to the current challenges so I thought I'd shamelessly pander the the audience and continue the pirate theme. I also need a ship-wreck for my current game so it seems to work. The first step in these maps is to get hold of a decent parchment background. There are many excellent tutorials on how to create such a thing from scratch and I will not go into this here.Thanks - obviously that is a somewhat extreme example, and it may well be that it is best used for smaller regions as that looks a little overwhelming, but the sense of buildings seems to work there. Anyway, on with the tutorial. First things first.

Steampunk is a sub-genre of fantasy and speculative fiction that came into prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. The term denotes works set in an era or world where steam power is still widely used - usually the 19th century, and often Victorian era England - but with prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy, such as fictional technological inventions like those found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, or real technological developments like the computer occurring at an earlier date. - Courtesy of Wikipedia.
