There are many ways to create retro backgrounds in GIMP. Here's mine: [link] There's nothing to download for this tutorial....just click the link in the previous sentence and you'll be redirected to the tutorial site.

The font I use in the preview is called Fontdinerdotcom Sparkly, you can obtain it (and the non-sparkly version) here: [link]

Enjoy!

Thanks for your kind words and glad you found the tutorial to be helpful. You work using it is really great! I'll add it to my faves later.

If you liked the tutorial, you might like the script I created for it that has some extra options. You can view it here: [link]

Take care!

This was an awesome tutorial! Very easy, so quick! Awesome! The only dif for me is that unstead of going to filters for it, I go straight to Script-Fu/Render/Line Nova. Everything else is the same. Thank you so much for creating such an easy tutorial!
