In further [livejournal.com profile] ratherastory is useless at the visual arts news

Hi all!

I have a very savvy flist, so I'm hoping you can help me. I have managed, with much sweating and cursing and use of CTRL-Z, to create a nice square image in GIMP that I'd like to use as an album cover for a book recording I'm making for my mother for Christmas.

I did a test run on Friday to try to print it... and it printed out about three times too big to be a good CD cover. I thought I got the settings right in GIMP, but apparently I thought wrong. Can anyone out there tell me what I should be doing?

Have you tried 'scale image'? Under the image tag? You can scale according to inches as well as pixels and the rest.
