Question on making Normal Maps with GIMP

[andylegate]

Can any of you out there give me some advice on making Normal Maps of my textures with GIMP?

Specifically what settings you tend to use to generate a Normal Map? There are many options and I find the results vary quite a bit of course depending upon the sampling I use.

I find this way works very well, since the detail or depth layer can be adjusted as needed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKCpB13PP8I
