[Gimp-user] Bit-depth Processing

2007-09-25 Thread Greg
I've read a few msgs. that talked about how GIMP only does 8-bit processing. Does that mean if I load, say, a 16-bit image, Will GIMP display and/or save the image as an 8-bit image? If that IS the case, that's a rather serious short-coming for photographers and such.
