How to Get Rid of the Yellow Outline for Text on GIMP
GIMP, short for GNU Image Manipulation Program, is a popular image-editing program that can be downloaded for free. When adding text to an image, GIMP automatically places a yellow outline around the text to make it easier to line up with the image. However, the yellow outline stays after you apply the text to the image and some people find this to be distracting while editing images. By using GIMP's "Layers" feature, you can remove the yellow outline.
