Replacement bases for Arne Vodder dressers - what wood type & how to get dimensions?  

Oak dyes really well and shouldn't be a problem to match that color.
SDR, I can completely relate on the GIMP issue... what a nightmare. Fortuately, you can dowload Photoshop for free now (CS2), so I ditched GIMP about a month ago and have been slowly teaching myself the basics. Makes me feel old. My two brothers are graphic designers and photographers and they have no problems with the software. Frustrating.

Thanks, mgee !  I'll take the plunge.  If you see bubbles, it means I've gone under . . .

Here is a link for anyone else who may be interested...
