O, I finally figured it out, almost by accident: The PNG is
indexed, so GIMP is resizing it in indexed mode, which comes out
like crap. If I switch to RGB first it works muuuch better. That
makes a lot more sense.
Oops, sorry about that. Yeah, you can't just resize pngs in gimp
You know, I glanced at this (I was in a rush) and thought oh, DJ
put one of his new boards on a scanner. It looks nice. I had no
idea what this actually was.
Based on that, I consider it successful :-)
Holy cow! It looks like a photograph.
I win!
That is really, really cool. I

That alarm clock board
That alarm clock board .png is beautiful. Makes me want to find a
project where I can post the board!
Well, if you post it anywhere, let me know where so I can follow the
reactions ;-)

Ok, I totally misunderstood that remark. I thought you wanted to find
someone else's EDA project where you could post my board to show off
PCB!

The shadow/highlight algorithms are designed for 9x oversampling
(i.e. give 300 dpi then scale it down to 100dpi in gimp). 4x
oversampling left too many ghost edges.
Here's the board
I tried a board with 8/8 rules and I couldn't get good results with a
final output size of approximately 1:1.
I use --dpi 100 for 1:1, but --dpi 300 and them reduce 1:3 in GIMP
gives a significantly better image.
You might have better luck with a 1.5x scale (--dpi 450 then 1:3).
Keep in mind

Feel free to go in and tweak if it you like, too. There's not a lot
of code specific to ben mode, and you can just search for ben_mode
to find it all ;-)
It's funny how boards have been used for so many purposes (bug
reports, examples of new features, etc) that they get
Cool. Looks very nice.

Yeah, I figured it would need to be changed at some point.
