I have absolutely no idea, it is just that I came across a reference somewhere which said I use 98% jpeg compression when archiving images. Better use compressed 8-bit sRGB TIFF instead (all minilabs I know would reject TIFF with *any* compression, though...). Why is that? Why is WHAT??? You need to Trim the posting more precisely... If you mean why TIFF?: Since TIFF provides no-artefacts storage at the same size as what you got from your JPEG (which WILL create artefacts). Why 8-bit? I already discussed that; and since your input is 8-bit, most probably you won't get any advantage from 16-bit. (Well, currently GIMP won't even produce 16-bit...) Why compressed? To save size...

I wonder if the questioner meant why do minilabs reject TIFF with *any* compression?

[Gimp-user] contribute to my cause
hello.. I'm creating a linux distro which is the first in my country (Dominican repolishing) but still do not have artwork, I have nothing prepared and if they can not help to create the wallpaper and boot screens like the logo . Keep in mind that the name of the distro could be even amber palm tree but can not bring myself to leave your comments about this. I'm not asking anyone to believe all this only if someone wants to help with that and to spare some time to be grateful .. because I have very little time for work and college to put myself to create the art .. Thank you all for reading this ..

There are alot of talented people on this list, but the list itself is not really meant for that type of discussion. It is more related to specific questions concerning gimp. I would suggest you post your question one more time. When you do, please include an e-mail address you can be reached at and perhaps a link to your web site / facebook / whatever. That way people will be able to contact and help you with out dilluting the content of this list One other thing , you might look into suse studio, or one of the other re-spin projects and see if they have something that would be useful to you Hope this Helps See ya -- dh ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
