Hello
@Thunder this is exactly what was happening to me, don't want to copy all your post but that's it that's what some of my images were doing and it's the images that were done in linear, thank you you champion you not only solved my problem, a few other people using gimp have this happen - this washed out look was not on a regular basis so it was difficult to pinpoint the culprit, you might want to look at the previous post, very similar . . .Thank you

One last thing before I go
also might be worth checking the entries in
