that might be just what I need right now ;) Thanks!

 

Edit: ok a small installation guide would have been nice. needs to be in the plug-in directory, remove the .txt and (under linux) make it excecutable.

It will show up under filter/enhance.

Thank you! Our project uses the scale2x filter frequenly & I see this supports it. I am going to try this out to see what else it can do. :)

Edit: WOW! This GIMP plugin is A LOT faster than the scale2x plugin with the same result! would it be possible to make it work with "Filters -> Repeat/Re-show"?

The GIMP Registry is dead. But it has been backed up to Github. The plug-ins can be found at these locations:

  • Scale Pixelart: https://github.com/pixlsus/registry.gimp.org_static/blob/master/registry...
  • Scale2x: https://github.com/pixlsus/registry.gimp.org_static/blob/master/registry...
