  IMO the rule allowing resizing should be removed (and the FAQ changed
to the opposite of what it's now).

   Yes, technically speaking, it's a resizing (resampling).

   !? ...why? Resizing is allowed, at least for the moment.

My thoughts exactly :) Neither Gaussian blur nor Mosaic should be very
hard to do in 3.5, esp. the latter. With the orthographic camera and
an image_map on a plane in front of the camera, one could almost as
much as make Warp happy :) <ducks>

I haven't really done much in POV recently... maybe I should play
around with image functions and try to recreate the post-processing
filters that were in MegaPOV. If RL permits, that is :(

I tried both Gaussian filters in Gimp and can't get good results.
Use Photoshop :)

   Yes, results with the Gimp are only a bit better than +a0.0. Anyhow, 
I will surely never use such technique, mostly because more detail on my 
images usually helps to make my mistakes more visible... :(


> Use Photoshop :)


   Well, I don't have a valid plataform... ;) Also, it's perhaps 
excessive for my little use of such programs... since I now use internal 
height_fields and rarely use image_maps, I mostly use the Gimp to put my 
sig and to convert to jpg.
