So, the downside of this approach is that the decisions you make *during* RAW conversion are generally lossless operations; you can go back and do them differently with no destruction of data. If you start from a file converted in a certain way, you've already lost a lot of flexibility. -- Matthew Miller [email protected] <http://mattdm.org/> _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
