Hi List, I'm trying to get the average color data from an image.  I'm using 
pix_dump and then trying to use 'average' to get the average of the dump, 
but the numbers are not matching.  i tested just a 1 pixel image, got 4 
values - 0.341176 0.360784 0.345098 1 - but the average is wrong - average: 
0.35098.  anybody know what i'm doing wrong or know of an easier way?  I'm 
on windows (pd .39-2) and just using gem...  BTW, does pix_resize work?
thanks!
here's the patch:
