[PLUG] Re: Maintaining image aspect ratio with The Gimp

[George Langford <george@georgesbasement.com>]

Last week I lamented about keeping image shape under control
when resizing with The GIMP, to which gyoza@comcast.net replied:

That does the trick, and couldn't be any simpler.  Even logical.

I had written:

Thanks,
George
