shadow tutorial for GIMP

-- So, here's how I do a shadow. I just recently figured it out, I've been trying to figure it out FOREVER, and now that I have, it's really simple and easy. It doesn't even take like 5 minutes. Sorry about my sloppy cutting/ mane smudging. I was to lazy. My first tutorial... is it alright?

-- I use GIMP 2.6, so some stuff might be different. Like I believe to do a dropshadow on older versions you have to go to script-fu and follow that... I update my version of GIMP every now and then. So I have the latest.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Hope it's easy enough to understand. :]
