which gets displayed at the top of the Patterns Selection dialog when loaded. PAT

must save it in the your /patterns directory inside your personal GIMP directory –
normally ˜/.gimp-1.2. Make sure you press Refresh in the Pattern Selection dialog
to rescan the patterns directory. See also

13.111 Pixelize
Overview
The Pixelize filter renders the image using large color blocks. It is very similar to
the effect seen on television when obscuring a criminal during trial. Pixelize Options
The single option available when using Pixelize is used to interactively change the
resulting block size. The number chosen will represent the size both horizontally and
vertically of the rendered blocks. The color for each block is determined at render time
by color weighting the underlying pixels, and determining the most used color.
