Hi everyone.
I am using GIMP for the creation of my texture pack, but the scale plug-in is not as good as what Photoshop's is meant to be. (It's free though so who cares)
This wasn't noticeable until a tried scaling the chest textures, and they came out really blurry.
Can someone with Photoshop, (or something else that can scale the chest textures without them becoming blurry) scale up the chest textures (to 3 times their size) and upload them somewhere?
Or does anyone know a way of scaling in GIMP that doesn't give a blurry result? (I tried 'Liquid Rescale' but it doesn't seem to like transparency)
There should be a way to rescale it properly in gimp.
Look for something with "resampling" and change that to "nearest neighbor".
Also, if you see something with "preserve hard edges", that might be it.

It’s the unpleasantness of the system that keeps me out.
I’d rather be in, in a good system. That’s where my discontent comes from:
being forced to choose to stay outside.
My advice: Just keep movin’ straight ahead.
Every now and then you find yourself in a different place."

I only tried the other Interpolation methods, because I assumed that None would be worse.
(Probably didn't help that I don't know what Interpolation means )

Scale Image, and set the Interpolation to "None"
...But that's just my opinion.
My DeviantART, requests welcome.

Need textures for your mod? Inquire within, just read the rules.
Worked great, thanks for the help guys.
This, and +1'd
That is a useful trick for all GIMP users.
