Hi Gimp-user, I took a screenshot of a region using KSnapshot, and saved it as a png. I know I can take a screenshot with Gimp, but KSnapshot sits in the tray and is always there. Sometimes I take a snapshot of a debug or error window when I can't grab the text, and use it temporarily while debugging. This screenshot I wanted to keep. :-)
I opened the screenshot in Gimp and saved it as another name, but still a png. I then scaled the image by 80% to reduce the size, and saved the file as a png. KSnapshot png save: 70k Gimp png save: 68k Gimp scale png: 263k When I saved in Gimp, the Compression was at level 9, and no checkboxes were checked. What am I missing here, why does the scaled version of the png have a larger file size? Thank you. -- __________________________ DJ _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
