Need some guidance with The GIMP

[Shagbag]

Here is my current desktop:

I got the image from KDE-Look and, for obvious reasons, I want to remove the reference in the top right hand corner.
I do not know how to do this. Could someone please suggest how I can do it?

Also, how do I increase the height of my taskbar and change the font size?

For "quick and dirty" fix in Gimp, use the select area tool to select a section immediately below the writing for copying. Then copy that section over the writing. Repeat if the selection isn't large enough. Save when happy with the result. For more elegant solution, use the clone tool to clone the adjacent area over the text.

To increase task bar size you need to modify /root/.icewm/preferences - MU was kind enough to send me a file called prefoverride which overrides the defaults and I don't have to wade through the larger file. Here are its contents:

Code: Select all

# Font Specification
TitleFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14:bold
MenuFontNameXft         =   sans-serif:size=14
MinimizedWindowFontNameXft   =   sans-serif:size=14
ActiveButtonFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
NormalButtonFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
ToolButtonFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
NormalWorkspaceFontNameXft   =   sans-serif:size=14
ActiveWorkspaceFontNameXft   =   sans-serif:size=14
QuickSwitchFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
ListBoxFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
StatusFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
ToolTipFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
ActiveTaskBarFontNameXft   =   sans-serif:size=14
NormalTaskBarFontNameXft   =   sans-serif:size=14
ClockFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14
InputFontNameXft      =   sans-serif:size=14

MenuIconSize=24
SmallIconSize=24
LargeIconSize=24
HugeIconSize=32

Save as prefoverride in the /root/.icewm directory and you should see a bigger taskbar and text.

Hope that helps.

Thanks WhoDo. I'll try the clone tool method you suggested. Thanks also for the code. I was fiddling around with /root/.icewm/preferences last night but it was late (midnight) and I had work the next day so I didn't get very far with it.
