This sounds reasonable. You might even want a larger texture. Any chance you are getting confused about what layer you are on? Probably not... Anyway, see if you can do the following: Create a new image in gimp with transparent background. Draw some sort of selection (e.g. using rectangle or circle). Can you fill that? If not check to make sure your opacity isn't zero, or your select feathering isn't on and a huge value, or something silly like that. Beyond that you may want to post a question on a gimp list.
