The clue is in your post, you are **cutting** then pasting over in a new layer. This leaves a legacy of anti-aliased (semi transparent pixels) see for the cut http://i.imgur.com/9DLb9dM.jpg see for the paste http://i.imgur.com/ub92l3m.jpg One solution is to turn off anti-aliasing **before** making the selection, which while giving an 'invisible' join http://i.imgur.com/XKPxRL3.jpg Makes a horrible jaggy border when the selection is color adjusted. http://i.imgur.com/9jsG4CM.jpg A better way is keep anti-aliasing **on** then COPY **not cut** then paste. That will give a better border when color adjusted. http://i.imgur.com/Mb6ul1x.jpg rich: www.gimp-forum.net -- rich2005 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
