I'm a newbie to gimp, going fast through the learning curve and (more or less) getting done what I need done.
However, one point where I'm failing dramatically is in the quality of the exports. I look at gimp and the image looks great, but when I export it into either jpg/png/whatever, try to set all settings to maximum quality and the result is still not optimal:

Pixel is 1100x680 (From memory) which I was given as the ideal size for facebook.
Any advice as to how to get a better resolution?
Thanks
Likely a Facebook re-compression. Don't use hearsay, Facebook publishes guidelines for images sizes. Find them and follow them.
Last I read was that they will recompress everything to JPEG so that it is less than 100K. That would mean that you have better create the 100K- JPEG image yourself. But even this is 2nd hand (3rd hand for you) so find their current rules.
