Now if you work with layers, things get a little complicated, because PNG format can't handle layers so you'll have to export the image first. The normal user should leave all the options as they are and click the OK button. When you save a file in the PNG format, a single window appears asking you for a few advanced options. The examples below cover the most important formats: PNG, JPEG and GIF.ġ. And the problem here is that most of the beginners are used to saving an image file after editing, with a single click. This happens to be yet another important part where the regular user gets scared, just because GIMP asks the user for a few advanced options (or offers some important information when saving from an image format to a different one) when he saves the files.
Are we learning GIMP yet? I sure hope so! I will start today's lesson about GIMP by apologizing to all of you, because I did not mention, in the first part of this guide, how to save different image file formats with GIMP.
