[Gimp-user] How do I trim or add x pixels from/to every edge?
Perhaps Tux was a bad example, I generally screen items with a lot more detail. Text, vines, gears and things, stuff like that. Your point is valid on a simple item like Tux, but I didn't want to complicate matters by talking about something more complex.

Thank you - I'll give those a try,.I've been messing with various layer options, nothing I've tried so far has given me a distinct amount - not too significant with the hypothetical Tux, but when the image has a number of smaller lines, it would be significant. The color selection for Grow or Shrink would be easy, I select the areas I need and then turn them solid black to make the stencil. -- qnr (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Two apologies - I accidentally posted this in the wrong forum earlier, I'm looking to see how to delete that post - also, this might be a duplicate, I did some searches but could not find the information that I was looking for. I am looking for the best way to trim or add a set number of pixels to every edge (interior and exterior) of an image. This is for creating stencils for screen printing. Say, for example, that I wanted to screen a simple image of Tux on a dark tee. I'd want to put a base layer of white down so that the white and yellow show up clearly; however, I don't want that white to bleed out past the black of the body of Tux. Scaling wouldn't work of course, because it would change the position of items in other areas.
