Use the "Intelligent scissors" if the image is suitable, then the quick mask to adjust the selection, then stroke. There is a foreground select tool which may do a similar job. Also there are filters which may assist, for example, the "Photocopy" filter may render a simpler image to trace. -- Owen _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
