Not sure how gimp works as compared to photoshop, but you may not be able to save it as a jpg. if it is still in layers.

If the image is finalized to your satisfaction, flatten the image, use "save as" and change the filetype to jpg. when you rename it.

If your image host has a file size restriction, you may need to reduce your image in size or quality.


Don't know if this helps or not... There should be some GIMP users on here tomorrow if you still need help.

I was thinking the same thing, troubl.

Probably could just Save As .jpg without flattening layers, just in case may want to go back and do more editing of layers later on, though.

Not sure if Gimp has a Save for Web and Other Devices like Photoshop, if so, this is best and easiest method to adjust size and quality of file to accommodate image host requirements.

I was stumped last night by the reference to the fox and was thinking, maybe firefox. Then this morning while lying in bed 1/2 awake, I have no earthly idea why, but the question from this thread popped into my mind and I remembered that the fox is Gimp's logo, which made me think about PS's .psd files have the PS logo, and then I was able to come to the above conclusion.

NC,

you may have just given him a new idea for a gameday face-painting ritual
