[Q:] S simple q wrt scaling
Hi there, the following appears to me to be a rather silly question. However I'm new to the gimp, and new to the list, but I've looked through the archive, and I've RTFM without success. I'm trying to rescale an image (say from 1000 pixel to 100 pixel to use a logo on the web). That works ok. However the sclaing process does only simple resampling of the imga, which results in a rather jagged look on the scaled image. There muts be away to get a smooth scaling (say by bilinear filtering), but I can't see it (maybe it is too obvious?)

Re: [Q:] S simple q wrt scaling
Make sure your image is in RGB format before scaling it. If you are doing the scaling with an indexed image, antialiasing can't happen. You can also scecify cubic interpolation in your gimp preferences.

Use a gaussian filter - I'd start with a radius of half the scale factor and adjust until the result looks good. -- David Hodson -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- this night wounds time
