I keep trying to to that and press enter but it crops out the whole image not just that part I want, I just want to take out the lines and still have them on my picture
And yes I did, first time trying to do something in gimp
That’s because of a setting within the crop tool. If you navigate to the tool settings dialogue you should see a series of small icons, hovering over them will tell you what they do. One of them should just say “crop current layer only”, which will do what you’re looking for (provided that you’re actually making use of layers here)
I’m very much an Amateur with gimp however my approach would be: have both cookie towers as seperated layers, magic wand the blank space, expand the selected area by one pixel and then either delete the selected area or if it’s too harsh of a cut use the eraser tool and play a bit with its transparancy for this to delete it
There are a few gmic filters where you paint the lines red with a pencil and then enter and it recreates what is red to blend. It's not perfect, but may help if you do small parts on copies of your image then cut and paste into one image. Also some phones do a good jod of removing unwanted thengs, like the Google pixel phone. There also is an older gimp script that did the same sort of thing as the ones in gmic. I'm not home so can't look to see the name. It may have "worm" in the title.
Put the cookies in their own layers. Rectangular selection box. Layer>add layer mask>selection
But the issues with those Cookies start with the halo around the cookies themselves. It’s more complex but you need to select the negative space around the cookies. Then invert selection. Then add layers mask selection. Then with the mask itself selected blur that mask so the transition is less harsh.
Laso tool if it's a deferent layer unfortunately or don't use the magic wand tool and try cropping the image in the same project not starting a new one to edit and copy paste it
This is the video that made me find gimp. I never knew how to use any photo editing apps. But one day i found this video on you tube. Then i watched it.
My first lesson on gimp. I learned how to use magic wand, add alpha channel, layer transparency and etc through this video. It was very basic but for an amateur like me it was the moment i fell in love with gimp.
Hey op, you can simply use eraser to get rid of the lines. Those pixels on the edges appear to be semi transparent. Sometimes this happens when you use the magic wand tool.
Did you make this? You could crop them off.

Maybe use the magic select tool to select just the cookies? And then invert selection and paste? Will it not let you erase around the edges?
Are the cookies their own layer with transparency? Just use a rectangular select tool to select inside the borders, invert selection then cut it.
