GIMP question
From

I use The GIMP for most of my photo manipulation. I have an image that I would
like to use as a watermark on a video project. So, I would like to make this
currently solid image somewhat see-through, so that whatever is in the
background will at least somewhat be visible.
If I do it in the video editor, Openshot, I can reduce the alpha for the track
that the solid image is a part of, and that will make it more transparent.
However, as I plan to use the image often, I would like to be able to add
transparency to the image when I save it in The Gimp, so that I only have to
remember to do it once.
I have not been able to determine yet which tool in The Gimp corresponds to the
alpha property in Openshot. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

If you're asking how you'd make something more transparent in Gimp, I'd use the layers.. make sure the background layer is transparent, then make the layer of your image less visable. Does that make sense?

Yes, it does. I was actually having trouble finding the opacity adjustment
because I somehow accidentally hid the Gimp toolboxes from myself. :)
