<tongue-in-cheek> So the huge image you generated is a fractal? Isn't it a bit silly to render such images (especially if they are huge) with GIMP, where all of the image's pixels are kept in memory (or the tile cache) all the time? Aren't many fractals such that you could calculate the value of each pixel independently of the others, with a very simple and minimal (non-interactive) program? (And if your desired output file format is PostScript, why not let the printer do the job ;-) PostScript is after all a programming language... Just send the printer a PostScript program that calculates the desired image. For many fractals, it might be surprisingly short.) </tongue-in-cheek> --tml
