I am trying to make a very small banner (468x60) for a game that I play. I have cropped out some objects from screenshots and saved them as PNG files so that I can drop them onto the banner and eventually export as a jpeg. My issue is I start with a really decent looking image and after I scale down the image it looks so blurry and even on a small banner is very noticeable. This is also the same with the text, but one problem at a time. I read about using some filter/enhance tools to sharpen up the image and haven't been successful yet. However when I open a few of these tools it has a preview window that has a really nice looking "small" version of my original PNG file. Is there any way that I can get that quality after shrinking my image down? I have taken a photo and attached it to show the obvious difference between my image and the preview before applying the enhance tools. Thank you so much for your time and please try super simple explanations as I am very very new into the photo editing game.
PS: Text never scales well, the smooth sharp edges will be damaged by scaling and this is very often noticeable. Either you use vector graphics, or you produce the text at the intended size directly to avoid rescaling. _______________________________________________ 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
