A subpixel is when one intentially implies pixels between pixels, and is seen clearly in animation where pixels interact and change accordingly to represent the given/hidden detail more fully.
Atleast that is how I understand it. I'm sure Camus can explain it better.

They're fat and a bit oily. And they cost a lot.

yes? subpixel very much sounds like below pixel level for me.. whatever, what i mean is that pixels don't allow 100% accuracy in displaying curves, them being infinitely thin,.. blabla you get the idea :)

you can't un-grid the pixels, by using aa it creates an illusion of smoothness, all the pixels are still in the grid.
i say it in more of a figurative way than literal.

yeah, curves are pretty figurative..
You can say a curve is more a motion, pattern/path, or general shape..
You can use any number of objects to create a curve includeing pixels.

thats geniouse.
never thought of it like that. I always saw a curve as a path or line, opposed to a pattern.
