and I have rarely had a complaint about colour. I intend to try getting a profile for my printer because it seems to me to be worthwhile trying to control the printing. Perhaps I am not critical enough. Norman ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user

My apologies, I gave the wrong reference for where I post some of my images, it should have been www.23hq.com/littletank. There are lots of classifications on www.23hq.com and meetthegimp is one of them. Norman ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user

them. UFRaw 0.14.1 Gimp 2.6.1 Ubuntu 8.04 The UFRaw package used is the ufraw-gimp. Furthermore, using ufraw-gimp 0.13.1 still gives only a thumbnail so it looks as though the problem could be with Ubuntu 8.04. Norman ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp
