Personally, I would use Save a Copy to create incremental backups of my xcf files. If my project xcf is "bob.xcf" then every now and then at a different completion save I do a Save As "bob-1.xcf" then later "bob-2.xcf" but I continue working in "bob.xcf" as my active image. (I created a script under 2.6 http://registry.gimp.org/node/14246 to do this for me, using a date/number append so I don;t have to remember which save-as version I've already used.) -Rob A> _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
