Re: [Gimp-user] Can't get this image sharp with GIMP. Any suggestions?
gimp wise you could try Filters-Unsharp Mask. But as for the camera - I couldn't tell from the sample pic if it is a focus problem. Is it focusing someplace else - easier to tell if there is more depth in the photo. Take a snap of a brick wall from an angle, or snap a photo of some stairs. Is it a dirty lens? Take it into your local camera shop and ask them to clean the lens for you (should be free). If you have the f-stop and shutter speed of the photo that would also help. - Timothy Jedlicka, [EMAIL PROTECTED], 1-630-713-4436, AOL-IM=tjbonzo Network Entomologist, Lucent Technologies, LWS NOVE/SLRnet Lab Operations ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] jpeg save settings
I've seen several debates about using the default jpeg quality setting when saving, but how about the DCT Method? The default is Integer. I've always bumped it up(?) to Floating Point on the assumption that it is better and only increases CPU usage. The file size of the floating point DCT was actually smaller than the Integer one (at least on my one test image). Is Integer DCT default a hold over from the days of slower CPUs or are there machines out there where using floating point is a noticeable performance hit? - Timothy Jedlicka, [EMAIL PROTECTED], 1-630-713-4436, AOL-IM=tjbonzo ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] select rect snap to corner
I'm trying to use the Select Rectangle with a fixed aspect ratio. I would like it to snap to the corner of the image/layer. I have snap to guides set, but apparently the edges of an image don't have default guides. Is there a way to easily accomplish this? I'm usually trying to crop a 4x6 image down to 3.5x5 maximizing as much of the original image as possible. Thank you for a wonderful program. - Timothy Jedlicka, [EMAIL PROTECTED], 1-630-713-4436, AOL-IM=tjbonzo Network Entomologist, Lucent Technologies, LWS NOVE Lab Operations ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Making GIMP a little more tablet friendly, maybe?
Sven One is the user point of view: a cluttered preferences Sven dialog makes it very hard to locate the option you are Sven looking for. Is a compromise possible? Looking at how firefox handles this, there are menu based preferences, and then there are customizations via about:config. about:config is even somewhat searchable/filter-able. If something like this was implemented then gimp could vouch/test the menu options, but if you invoke a customization then Your Kilometage May Vary. Then we could argue whether an option should be a preference or a customization. - Timothy Jedlicka, [EMAIL PROTECTED], 1-630-713-4436, AOL-IM=tjbonzo Network Entomologist, Lucent Technologies, LWS NOVE Lab Operations ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
