I'm trying to use a program called "depixel" in Ubuntu 14.04 which seems to be written in python3. I'm trying to use it so I can smooth out a pixel art image I made. Here is a link to the program. I have the image with the alpha channel removed, but how do I install and run this program?
(If you've never heard of this, you can read about it here.)
Edit: I got the program set up and left it processing an image for about a day now, it seems to just hang up on me.

Here's how I did it:
1.Download depixel
2.Extract it to a directory
3.Use a terminal to enter it (it should be called "depixel-master"
4.Run the command "python setup.py" as root.
5.Go into "depixel/scripts"
6.Make sure the image you want to use has it's alpha layer removed (You can remove this using GIMP.)
7.Run the command "python depixel_png.py" with the path of your image at the end.
8.Be patient, it might take awhile.
