In this GIMP text tutorial, I show you how to wrap your text around a 3D cube - a technique I'm calling "Cubic Typography." This graphic design technique is similar to the kinetic typography technique, where text either appears in motion or is interacting with a 3D object or a 3D space. Use this free and amazing photo editing software plus a free font to create an incredible composition!
