In the lower portion of the image window, the second from the right radio menu there -- marked with a percentage. Change this from 100 percent to something smaller like 50% or even 25%. Fitting the image to the computer screen is different than scaling the image. Scaling the image is good for email or for web sites. carol ps, how did you avoid the user mail signature on the lower portion of this mail sent to the gimp-user mail list? _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
