It would both make sense to either use the resolution stored in the image or use the resolution they believe the screen has to generate a similar appearance. The latter makes especially sense when web designers don't pay attention to the resolution stored within the image. I suspect they always assume that for a web page a low resolution is enough and their images use to use 72dpi. I only pay attention to resolution when I'm about to print an image.

As far as you don't leave the computer, that parameter doesn't make any sense, as you're always working with pixels. That parameter refers to the size of the image once printed, or how big your pixels will be.

Re: [Gimp-user] n00b question about resizing
Quoting Rick Hogg [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Now, to do this I went into the Image-Scale Image dialog, changed X- and Y- Resolution to 72 pixels/inch, but the Image Size didn't change. The link box to the right of each of these options was linked. If I didn't know the image was supposed to be 250x160, is there any way to automate this process? What is the equivalent of the two PS options? I am not that familiar with the Photoshop paradigm but perhaps Adobe chose to combine into one what the GIMP maintains as separate operations. If you use the GIMP's Image-Print size..., you can change the DPI setting so that it matches the setting of the intended output device. You would then use scale image to size your image to what it what its real-world dimensions should be on that device. Hopefully, I am not too far off-track on either what you are seeking. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
