Banding in gradient creation
Have you printed your work?
There are ways to minimize banding: adding a little Gaussian blur, or
noise, or both.
Sometimes it is the art/gradient itself. I have had gradients that work
beautifully, others that show some subtle banding. Some look better on
the monitor, some look better in print (I print with an Espon 7600 on
very good paper), some paper is better than others.

Hi Miles.
I'm afraid the technical details of bit-depths and monitor hardware are
beyond
me.
However, when playing with inkscape I can create gradients that don't
have
bands.
Also, when I'm viewing other peoples artwork online I don't get the
bands.
I'm guessing that this might mean that the problem might not be my
monitor,
but is more likely to be the technique that I'm using in gimp.
Could this be the case?
