Why would I save it lossless somewhere BEFORE editing a file Ive imported from a JPG? The loss has already happened, I can always get the exactly same quality for this particular file from the JPG. After editing the only sane format to SAVE to is xcf. Not only is it lossless, you wont lose any of the layers/objects you have made in the process.

Save is to xcf - the only sane starting point for future editing. -- --Alexia _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
