just wandering did you know how to make "plastic wire in gimp"
Art
I'm not really sure I exactly understand your question, but I'll give it a shot....
When you create the globe, you can create it on a new canvas if you want, but it's not absolutely necessary. Once you have the globe in place, I recommended that you duplicate the globe "layer", not the globe image (there's a difference between the two...you duplicate the layer by selecting the layer in the layer dialog window and at the bottom of that window there is a button that looks like 2 sheets of paper...click that button to duplicate the selected layer.). Once you do that, select the duplicate layer, which should be above your original globe layer, and go to Layer Menu > Merge Down to merge those layers together.
Now, if you did create your globe on a new canvas, you certainly can copy and paste it onto the other globe layer if you need to, but as I said above, you don't really need to do that.
Not sure if this answered your question, but I'll be glad to help you out in any way I can.
Take care.
