First of all, I'm very please with the quality of the gimp. I'm new to
image manipulation tools but am an old unix hack so it was more intuitive to
me than most windoz-original programs.

Here's a few of my favorite websites about The GIMP:
In the document index dialog.

Yesterday I read an article about how Linux is the OS of choice for
film animation these days in the big studios. Someone has developed a
Gimp variant called by one of the names above (sorry, leaky memory)
which is the actual tool used. It is Gimp modified to emphasize
animation.

Just FYI, even though Photoshop may generally handle large file sizes well,
it fails completely with images that are larger than 32K pixels in any
dimension. That's a complete washout for my images, which are very long,
often well over 100K pixels in length.
On the other hand, the GIMP will handl
Under Windows I am running into a problem where the GIMP's pixel buffer
seems to hit a 2GB file size limit when my gray scale TIFF image files
excede roughly 400KB in size. I'm guessing the buffer requires 5 bytes per
pixel (RGB, transparency, ?), even though all of that isn't really needed

I would be glad to try some of your files on my system. Shoot 'em over.
I have tried and used Red Hat (various) and Mandrake. I like them both, but
the one I like best is SUSE. I've used 7.3 and 8.0 (currently). I'm nobodies
computer guru, so if I can use these distros anybody can.
I chose SUS
I am curious about your file sizes though: 400 KB doesn't sound all that big;
actually, that sounds pretty small. Also, I'm not very technical so bear with
me, but isn't 5 times 400 KB about 2.0 MB? What am I missing here?

Sorry Fred and all, my apologies, 400KB was a serious typo. That should
have read 400MB!

Whew! That would be a test of my system!
Like I mentioned earlier, the largest files I ever tried to work with were
about 100 MB, and although it worked it was too annoying to bother with.

Hi Fred -
Fortunately, it isn't actually necessary to use a 400+MB file to test for
the problem. I am uploading a 500M pixel file to an ftp site that I will
point you to shortly. This file is 1 bit per pixel and using group 4
compression is only about 6MB in size. Hopefully that will download a

I may be able to save you the trouble.
While I was waiting, I went ahead and just tried to make some 400 MB tiff

Above that, the GIMP just died and went away - literally! I set the

Hi Fred -
Thanks for the info. Just encountered some rather surprising results on my
own system, and sent you a separate note regarding that. Your results are
similar to what I experienced previously on my system, but at around 400MB
instead of 273MB. FWIW, I have 1.5GB of RAM on my Win 2K base
Hello,
Does anyone out there happen to know of a utility that can simply change the
image resolution values that are imbedded in a TIFF file? For example, I
would like to be able to change 200 dpi to 400 dpi and thereby reduce the
output size of the image by half, while maintaining the same pixel
Hmmm,
Ok, here is what seems to be happening: When the size of the vertical axis
(I didn't test horizontal) exceeds somwhere around 2250 inches, the gimp
dies or locks up. It doesn't seem to matter what the size of the file is,
and it doesn't matter how many pixels there are.
