Re: [Gimp-user] Smoothing out the image edges?
Thanks guys. The "path" option works very well. Here is a much better looking star: http://ajaygautam.com/scaled-star.png Tagg: Scaling is also a great option. I got good results with that, but path seems like a much better option. Thanks again.

Re: [Gimp-user] Smoothing out the image edges?
Try converting the selection to a path and stroking the path. Or better yet, see if you can start with a path from the very beginning. The stroke on paths seems to be a bit smoother than the one on selections. --- On Sun, 12/28/08, Ajay Gautam wrote: > From: Ajay Gautam > Subject: [Gimp-user] Smoothing out the image edges? > To: gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu > Date: Sunday, December 28, 2008, 8:04 PM > I followed the tutorial at: > http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Borders_On_Selections/ > > and created: > http://ajaygautam.com/star.png > > The image is very rough.

[Gimp-user] Smoothing out the image edges?
I followed the tutorial at: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Borders_On_Selections/ and created: http://ajaygautam.com/star.png The image is very rough. I would like to either create a smoother image, or smooth this one out. I tried finding information on google, but perhaps I wasn't searching for the right thing. Any help / pointer(s) in the right direction would be very much appreciated. PS: I am VERY new to graphic design, methods and terminology. Pointers to documentation discussing basic concepts and related terminology of computer graphic design would be VERY much appreciated too. Thanks in advance.
