You might try pinging the Gimp > developers on this. PNG, GIF and JPEG do not have layers. TIFF either, TIFF can store multiple pages though. If you got layers or other information in the edited image that cannot be saved with the chosen format, you should be warned about it and instructed to export rather than save. Maybe you try to force gimp to store the data under wrong extension or so. --- Piero piero@poprostu.pl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
