New Post: Feather / anti aliasing / remove jagged lines

I dont know if you know much about Anti-aliasing but anti-aliasing is a software technique used for smoothing the jagged appearance of diagonal lines in a bitmapped image. The pixels that surround the edges of the line are changed to varying shades of gray or color in order to blend the sharp edge into the background. Here is an example:



There are different anti-aliasing methods that you can use to remove the jagged appearance one is the resizing method that I am using, however this is very intensive on the CPU and RAM because you are creating 4 times the size of image that is needed, hence using 4 times more CPU and RAM. So I was looking for an alternative to this method.

I have fould a few link on the image magick website

Feathering

Distance Feather

I was wondering could you translate them so I could use them on .NET.

Thanks for the help
