Re: [Gimp-user] HATE the new save vs. export behavior

2013-07-19 Thread Francesco Scaglioni
Hi, It may be just me b ut I honestly cannot see what all the fuss is about. Things used to work one way now they work another - a few minutes for muscle memory and the new way is instinct without thought so what is the problem. For years we put needles in grooves on flat vinyl, now we just
