1. A method, comprising: under control of a computing device, rendering a primitive of an image to be displayed, the primitive having an area, the rendering including: locating pixels that fall within the area of said primitive; and for each pixel located in the area: generating a set of sub-pixels of the pixel, the set of sub-pixels including first and second sub-pixels; creating an adaptively filtered set of sub-pixels, each of the sub-pixels of the adaptively filtered set having color components and the creating including: creating an adaptively filtered first sub-pixel by adaptively filtering said first sub-pixel and a first set of neighboring sub-pixels of one or more neighboring pixels adjacent to the pixel; and creating an adaptively filtered second sub-pixel by adaptively filtering said second sub-pixel and a second set of neighboring sub-pixels of one or more neighboring pixels adjacent to the pixel; computing a final pixel for display by subjecting said adaptively filtered set of sub-pixels to further filtering; and displaying the final pixel on a display of the computing device.
