I think you are seeing the 'new' icons which appear now. They are more 'stylized' from the icons from previous GIMP versions. In my eyes not an improvement, but I guess that's a personal matter. Also, I think they are meant to indicate that they have sub-menus to select the actual function you need by right-clicking (notice there are less icons than before?).

Hi Wolfgang, http://www.shallowsky.com/software/gimp-save/ This plugin provides a new 'file command' for the GIMP, which exports, and also marks the file as clean, so the confirmation does not appear anymore. It was posted by Akkana on this list a long time ago.

Yes you can reassign the control keys. But that doesn't completely solve the inconvenience. Ypu still have to confirm losing info on exiting GIMP. There is also a plugin (from Akasha?) which is slightly better than reassigning, but introduced another problem (I seem to recall).

So you could still be relaxed and happy. Not entirely sure. I'm guessing a frequent action on a computer (windooze or linux) is editing a picture from a camera (jpg) and sending it along. So, with Gimp 2.8, those old ladies will end up with a bunch of .xcfs which they won't be able to pass on to other, non-gimp users. So, they'll have to learn how to export to .jpg, which seems an extra complication.

I would not use that. For instance, just a couple of minutes ago I opened an XCF file, merged several layers for convenient export of some image elements to another XCF file, and closed the file without saving. If an autosave hit in the middle of that, it would commit this strictly temporary state to my source file, wiping out layers I need to keep if I closed the file - or somebody tripped over the power cord - before reverting the changes. As 'GSR' also commented there are quite a few ways to avoid this problem. The autosave could save a copy with the same name in a temp directory, or add hashes (#yourfile.xcf#) or any other idea. -Why not make the Undo buffer for the last N edited images persistent for X days? Disk space is generally not an issue. That's an interesting idea. Over the years I have heard a lot people wishing out loud that they could undo changes in a saved image after closing out. Still though, there have been times when I had to repeatedly flush the undo buffer when using an older/slower machine to work on big files - a day's work could add up to gigabytes of saved buffer in some instances... No doubt. Not unlike the cache of a browser... It's scary how much info gets saved in a machine, mostly never to be used again. But still, gigabytes are getting cheaper by the minute.

The question should be understood literally :) Is GIMP the only tool to get your job done? I wrote a couple of macros in Guile which help me, so Gimp is my preferred tool, yes. Say 95% of bitmap editing is done in Gimp. For vector work, I use Inkscape (which, BTW, has a very convoluted file file flow). We don't know if you need this unsafe workflow all the time or half the time. I'm not sure what's unsafe. Losing multiple layers, masks, extra channels etc. is unsafe.
