Had this idea off and on again for a while now, but this time I happened to be in front of a computer when inspiration struck.

Made with GIMP 3.0.4. Yes, I used the awkward {selection + normal fill + smaller selection + erase fill} method to draw the circle. There was also a bright spot in the image under the text that required a drop shadow.

I need someone to explain what this has to do with Harry Potter. Off by one, too?

I still find it insane that gimp doesn't have something like a circle tool, is it really too much to ask?

Can’t you just use the ellipse selection and do a trace selection?

Edit: Stroke Selection is the proper name
