Clean up curves

Hi all!

I am working on a design, and I am stuck trying to fix some ragged flames. The lines are all jagged, and I was wondering if there was an easy way to smooth them out. As you can see in the image looks pretty bad. I could use some help here.

The cleanest solution is to use the path tool to redraw the edges with smooth curves (and trhen selection+bucket-fill). Easiness depends on your skills with that tool and the number of flames.

A quick two-minutes jobbie:

No simple solution like ofnuts said. You can try the smudge tool to see if it helps.

Or you could grab the vector of the flames: http://website4signs.com/Flames/ClassicRedFlames.pdf

I'm pretty sure this is where the flame graphics came from originally. If I'm wrong - yeah, you will need to manually clean things up, sorry.
