Hello All,

Thanks for your replies & help & suggestions.

The first thing I tried to do was right-click on an image, and looked for a
Save As option. This is I think intuitive, and where casual users might
expect to find this. If you are taking suggestions for future
features/functionality, this might be one to add to the list.

I did install UFRaw over the weekend, with the aim of using it as a gimp
plugin. I didn't realise it was compatible with F-Spot, so I will try this.

Gimp didn't seem to pick up on it though, so I ended up using it standalone.
However, UFRaw rendered images quite different to F-Spot. The images looked
absolutely great in F-Spot, but much darker in UFRaw - shadowed regions for
example were almost black.

Would anyone have any suggestions as to why this is, and which is "right"
(hopefully F-spot)? I'm not doing any processing or altering of the image -
just the default settings.

I'll give ufraw+f-spot a whirl a bit later - i'll let you know how I get on.

Thanks again,

Richard.
