Hi, I'm a GIMP user and completely new to icon-making.

I'm trying to outline some text in an icon. I've checked the memories and found explanations of how to do it in PS/PSP, but I couldn't find similar tools to the ones described there in GIMP. I know it must be really simple, and am therefore very annoyed with myself for not being able to find anything!

Sorry if the information I need is in fact already on here somewhere - I have looked, though, and not found it.

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes pity on me!
