Hi! How do I resize a rectangular selection? Every other graphics app I Hmm, never thought about this before. I suggest you copying your selection to a new transparent layer and then use the transform tools (double click on the button to choose the right one - perspective...) on the whole

Arrghh!! Problems with Libraries!

Seems like I just _can't_ get the latest GIMP RPM to work! I've installed new GTK/GLIB rpms (devel + standard) and created .so.1 links to the .so libs (GIMP looks for .so.1) and I get the following error: gimp: error in loading shared libraries: gimp: undefined symbol:

I was about to say the same thing as Amy. I'm using the Nikon Coolpix 950 and a cheapo PCMCIA adapter. I just mount the CF cards like little FAT partitions. Its actually easier to copy images in Linux than it is in Windows. My PCMCIA bay is an Antec DataChute ISA. Shop for any camera that
