I discovered this after watching a tutorial on vector graphics.

interesting

can you give a link to the video you got this idea from ?!

Fraid I can't. It came with a "Photoshop Creative" magazine. Sorry.

Rather just use Mehdi's Find threshold filter or G'MIC's B/W Stamp Erisian. Sometimes I feed a result into Potrace and port the vector result back into GIMP.

so do you select the black or the white or does it matter?

It doesn't really matter. Depends what you want to do with it. I selected black and flood-filled black.
