Hi, I have images that I want to sharpen/tidy. Scanned of: maps, line drawings, logos, ... I want to prepare them for going into web pages. These are different from the images that the tutorials cover, they are:
* several colours only needed. Small variations in colour should be eliminated as they aren't wanted and only serve to make the image file bigger. * edges need to be sharpened, little bits of detail ironed out since they are prob an aretfact of scanning. If several lines meet then they will probably continue in a straight, or constant curve, for some distance. I have done this sort of thing by hand, zapping unwanted pixels, flood filling areas (and using the same colour in other no-connected areas). Is there an easier way of doing this ? BTW: I only use the Gimp occasionally and must admit that I find it difficult/frustrating wandering around the menus trying to work out what things like the Gaussian Blur filter are. It would be nice if there was a tooltip or 10 line help that I could get on these. Guessing and trying them on my image is very time consuming. -- Alain Williams Parliament Hill Computers Ltd.
