At least with my black and white scans, I'm also finding that using
Curves to make the gray colors whiter and the black colors blacker
(after gaussian blurring and contrast adjustments) are allowing me to
remove the bitmapping from black and white work that I've scaled up too.

Thanks for the help finding all these great new toys! :)

Hi there!

Hmmm...Yes... and as far as I know it can cure any disease, and turn
plumbum into gold.  :-)


Just kidding - but it's really a usefull tool, this blurring. I first
met it even before using the GIMP, for making  drop shadows by hand.

Just the other day, I met someone who would use Gaussian Blur to make
a better "detect edges"  than the filters built with this purpose.

And I certeinly use it to eliminate some of the aliasing when I
enlarge pictures. Just rest certain to set interpolation type to
Cubic, in the
(main)File->Preferences->Enviroment->Scaling  settings. It wil;l
certainly do you more good than gaussian blurring in this case.

Sorry for the image size.
[300KB image atachment ommitted to the list ]
This is what I got wth the GIMP

1) filters->blur->gaussian blur, 3 hor, 2, V
2) adjust brightness and contrast: enhance contrast, augment brighness
3) repeat  steps 1 and 2 once.
Hope it satisfies you.
If you need to automate that, I could make a script for you later on.

Hi Everyone!

I'm new to the list, but I've been using gimp exclusively now for
several months, and I love it.
The one feature I used to have with photoshop but haven't yet found with
Gimp is a filter called (I might be mis-remembering) Cutout.
It was great for taking my black and white sketches and smoothing them
out to make them look more vector-drawn, as well as filling in any
missed spots. Here's an example:
Before Cutout: http://www.dreslough.com/main/latest/FallGirlandDog-2.png
After Cutout: http://www.dreslough.com/main/latest/FallGirlandDog2.png
What's the equivalent filter for this in Gimp? (I'm sure there is
one...there seems to be an equivalent for everything else I've needed so
far... ;) )
