    I was trying a Clipping Mask GIMP tut by Warfang. At first I never ended up using it but then remembered I meant to and did :D

    I would say never duplicate the focal twice in the sig, in a clipping mask you want a area of detail or something like that to add more substance to your sig. So take your stock and paste it in one and then try a clipping mask...

    Depends really. It's up to the user. I've done it a couple of times.

    Actually, she's part right, but you don't want two focal points in areas that contradict each other.

    No I was just saying I understand what you mean. It is like having a picture of a face but you only see half. The other half is deleted. Then you add a clipping mask so you can see part of the deleted half of his face. Is that what you were trying to say?

    yeah, kinda...I was mainly saying that having the same thing twice in a sig doesn't usually look good...
