Change the resolution. You can do it under image size by unchecking the box about the actual page dimensions. Basically people scan at 600dpi and reduce the dimensions without changing said resolution, so you're laying font on an image that should be 6000x.

This is what it looks like now. That adequate?

EDIT: UGH! I uped the Res to 1000 making the size 2700x4000 and the text still forces me to go down to 2-3pt of size when in the Mizuryu Doujin I edited I could go upto 6-7pt and the size of those pages and Res was FAR smaller! I'm soo damn confused right now. Like, the text doesn't look as shit as before but it just feels odd having to type in that small of a test

Untick "Resample" and set Resolution to 150.

Aha! So that's the culprit! Thank you.

Well tried some things to improve it and I did as you told me Margot but the letters are still appearing chopped up. I'm trying to wrap my head around this. I really like to preserve alot of quality, that can atleast be over 1MB because with the settings Im using now, it'll be atleast under 200KB.

That looks like you're not using antialiasing. I'm guessing that's what the aa followed be "none" at the top center of your posted image is for?

Set your Anti-aliasing (AA) to smooth:

THANK YOU GUYS! FUCK! That's a MASSIVE load off my back, shoulders and head.

I'm wondering if there is a way (simpler the better) to stroke transformed (I often want to rotate SFX) in GIMP.

Anybody know about anything?

How can I make text be slanted back like this?

Set the text in the position you want (long ways, stacked, etc.) and either trying skewing it (under transform) or rasterize it (go over it it's layer and right click) from there you can just change its perspective.

Know how to transform and smart it but don't know how to change it's perspective with Smart.

Under the transform options on the top bat along with Warp/skew and such you'll see perspective, but only after rasterizing it.

Hey, guys. Which one is better to work with? The first one has less censorship but second one has bigger resolution.

I'd go with the first one. The resolution is high enough to read and the reduced censorship is a great plus.

What I was thinking. Just needed someone to reinforce the idea. Thanks.

First one. Resolution can be easily reinforced and colors sharpened even further to match the second one. I know, sharing my thoughts a week late lol

I'm not resizing it.

Wasn't talking about resize but strengthening the Blacks/Whites ^.^;

Hi guys,
So I'm taking my first attempt at TL and editing. Is there anything I could be doing better/differently before I continue? Thanks.
(I'd imagine that 1.9MB is too large, what can I do to lower that?)

On the fist box, and then those two combined boxes in the first panel, the font size could be a bit smaller. Notice how the words are almost touching the border? You should leave a little more space than that.

Your colors also feel a little off, and it's probably because the image is still on RGB. I would personally change it to Grayscale and then apply levels.
