Everybody's heard about the blurred

Nice Function, Terry.  The _MEM stuff sure makes a speed increase.  I think I will try to incorporate _MEM in mine to see how much faster it can get.  Well, here's what I came up with after studying sources in other languages.  This one let's you define the radius, higher values make it slower.

Screen _NewImage(800, 600, 32)



For t = 1 To 1000

    size = Rnd * 255

    x = Rnd * _Width: y = Rnd * _Height

    Line (x, y)-(x + size, y + size), _RGB(Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255), BF

Next

For t = 1 To 50000

    PSet (Rnd * _Width, Rnd * _Height), _RGB(Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255, Rnd * 255)

Next



GaussianBlur 8, 100, 100, _Width - 100, _Height - 100



Sub GaussianBlur (radius, startx, starty, endx, endy)



    tempimage& = _CopyImage(_Display)

    origsource& = _Source

    origdest& = _Dest



    Dim pix As Long

    sigma = radius / 2

    cons = 1 / (2 * 3.14159 * sigma * sigma)

                    If (y + j >= 0) And (x + i >= 0) And (y + j < _Height) And (x + i < _Width) Then
