I'm not sure I know how to describe it. I was really just asking in general terms although there is a specific image that prompted my question. Take a look at my web site at http://craniac.afraid.org and look at the very first photo there, the one with the red buildings. I used the curves on the sky section to give a similar effect to using a polarising filter. This has accentuated noise that isn't too noticeable in this small, low-res version but is quite noticeable in the full-sized original and would probably be noticeable on a print. As this is a reasonable flat area of colour the Gaussian blur filter could work but might not be the best thing to use for other images. I think that what I'm looking for is some ideas/tutorials on different techniques that would suit different cases. I don't much care for a script that is more generic. After all if I wanted the canned approach I could just use Windows and Photoshop with it's million and three filters. I prefer to understand why the technique works as this will aid me in applying it to future, slightly different cases. -- Steve Crane http://craniac.afraid.org _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
