Re: [Gimp-user] Image resizing based upon image content plugin
There is information on the website, IIRC you have to extract it into gimp's file structure under program files. Check the website to be sure, though. I would find it but at the moment I can't, sorry.

< big snip > Whatever the fine points may be and the tweaking that will inevitably go on, the importance to a learner like me and others, is that a process was brought to our attention in an understandable and practical way. What would be useful, however, is if those who try out the process could report their findings whenever they are new or different to those in the video and backed up by evidence, so that the rest of us may benefit from their experience.

I didn't see it on the plugin info page.. It's on the help page. /usr/local/share/gimp-lqr-plugin/help/en/index.html - quote -- In the Feature preservation selection section it is possible to specify if there are regions of the image which should be preserved from modification, by checking the Activate feature preservation box, and by choosing a layer among the ones which belong to the current image (different from the active one, which is to be rescaled) in the Available layers menu. The intensity of the effect on each pixel is obtained as the average on the pixel's channels, including the alpha channel. Thus for an RGB layer with an alpha channel, the maximum value is achieved on white pixels, while black ones are worth one quarter of the white ones and transparent pixels are ignored. - /quote -- Oh, BTW, a viewer informed me, that the plugin compiles under Mac OS without problems - there are just no binaries floating around.

However, I think you must've made some mistake when resizing to double the width. If you didn't notice, the plugin doesn't get rid of the cows you marked in the "loose" layer - that's because these markings are only *hints* for the algorithm. I'm not sure what it would do when you give it info to remove and ask to scale up at the same time.. Also, try enabling recalculation of energy after every step (it's a checkbox in advanced options). This should allow you to double the size of the image. Oh, one last thing - where did you get that using white vs. black changes the intensity? I didn't see it on the plugin info page..

(hopefully > :-) ) You're absolutely right. The plugin for context-sensitive resizing is located at http://liquidrescale.wikidot.com/ (is it the same one as in your links?). I got it to work fairly easily. I was hunting for it and the colorizer plugin and got the two confused in my head :D The colorizer plugin seems very cool, especially since I have a lot of old b/w photos that I'd love to colorize As far as generating it for win32.. I'm using Linux, so probably no.

See, it uses different layers to mark areas which should be preserved and areas to be removed (just paint it with paintbrush and go). Unfortunately, it's nowhere near as fast as the one shown in the video. And, as a corollary, it can't be used to see the difference while resizing. Someone mentioned (on some blog) that this plugin uses some generic math library and would work better with specialized algorithms. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

The first thing to find out is whether any of this has been patented yet. If it has, then there are probably other approaches to identifying interesting areas of the image - graph-cut algorithms or other feature-identification systems.
