Well, the point is that most people do make mistakes. We can even play a little game if you want: give me the URL of some JPEG image that claims to come directly from a digital camera. I bet that I can tell you immediately if it was modified by some other program. And with a bit of luck, I could even tell you which program has modified it even if the EXIF metadata is not included in the file or has been modified. Note that the removal of the EXIF block is already a hint that the image has been modified, since almost all digital cameras include EXIF blocks in all their images. If you have the latest GIMP from SVN (soon to be 2.4-rc3), you can also try to run the small test program in plug-ins/jpeg/jpegqual and it may tell you some things that you did not expect about some of your JPEG files. Note that this tool is still under development, but you can already do some interesting things with it. -Raphaël _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
