Say I'm working in a web design project and the files I would probably put in /home/gezim/projects/web/. So when I go to http://www.sxc.hu/ (great site for royalty free stock images, BTW) find my images, save them to /home/gezim/projects/web/ . Then I would open GIMP open ~/projects/web/flower.jpg manipulate it then guess what? I would save it back in the directory that I opened it from (/home/gezim/projects/web) . If you don't do this, then you're just disorganized and GIMP can't help you with that. When you write something to a harddrive you should (I do anyway) make sure that the location you're putting it in is logical, so it wouldn't need to be changed.
