Open and export a PNG
- File → Open, pick a photo.
- File → Export As…, type a name ending in .png.
- Confirm the PNG dialog. That writes a copy; the Clay project stays as XCF if you save it.
Circle crop
- Ellipse Select. Hold Shift while dragging for a circle.
- Select → Invert, then Delete, or add a layer mask from the selection.
- Export PNG if you need a transparent outside.
Two layers
- Open a background. Layer → New Layer for a second sheet.
- Paint or paste on the new layer. Move it with the Move tool.
- Lower opacity on the Layers dock to fade it. File → Save keeps both layers in XCF.
