Putting numbers on a bike

Post by juicer731 »

Alright, so I tried putting some numbers on my bike in gimp and I'm able to do my front plate but my side number plates are the problem. I'm not sure how to get them on there straight, since the plates in the template are angled and the numbers would come out straight making them not aligned with the side plates. Not sure if I explained this well enough or not, but has anyone had this problem? Is there a way I could rotate the template in GIMP but not the full 90 degree angle, just like 5 or 10 degrees?

Thanks, I'm not at my computer now, but I'll try it out after school tomorrow.
