 Let's see if I got this right.

 On the Scale Image dialog, I change the size but not the resolution,
 correct??

And how does one uncouple these two parameters? When I change one the other 
changes.

No, it doesn't. Changing the size in the Image Scale dialog doesn't
have any effect on the resolution.

[Gimp-user] Shrinking Photos.

2004-11-24 Thread John N. Alegre
Is there a better way to reduce the size of a digital photo (.jpg) and 
preserve detail then using the File  Image  Scale Image function of GIMP?

If you want to change the print size, you just have to change the DPI 
settings. On gimp 2.2 there is a new print size dialog that doesn't
