GIMP has a really small default for warning people they are about to make a large image - just ignore it. You can change the warning in preferences. I work on pretty much a daily basis with images of the memory size you mention. GIMP works fine. Normally i work with a single layer. One of the "window-Dockable Dialogues" is "Undo History"; at the bottom right of the dock (dialogue) that you get in Indo History is a button that lets you throw away the undo history so far. This saves a ton of memory, expecially after any operation that affects the whole image, such as Curves. You will not have a problem saving this file - as long as you have disk space :) Liam (slave ankh) -- Liam Quin - web slave for https://www.fromoldbooks.org/ with fabulous vintage art and fascinating texts to read.
