: How to overlay an earth-like grid on the text in GIMP? How do I create a text with a grid overlay as shown in this image?

@Martha945

Create a new layer above your text layer.
Place your grid element on this new layer.
Create a clipping mask with the layer that has your grid element.(In Photoshop, you right click on the layer and select "Create Clipping Mask")
Re-position your grid element so it is on top of your text!


You can find more information on this technique by searching for how to create a clipping mask or masks in your graphic application of choice.
