Hi all,
I'm new here, so please bear (bare?) with me...
I've just started using GIMP after many many years of Photoshop CS 5.5. I never updated past that because I really don't need a lot of bells and whistles.
On to new business...
Is there any reason why the Save/Save as... dialog can't have a drop-down for other file types? it's a nice touch that in version 3.0 they've introduced a dialog that asks if I'd like to be taken to the Export dialog, but this seems like an unnecessary step when both saving and exporting could easily be handled in the same dialog.
I was searching for other software that supports the GIMP file format, but I can't find any. Have I missed one? two? more? Because if no one else supports it besides GIMP, is there an artist-oriented reason for its existence?
Sorry if I'm stepping on toes or blundering around like the proverbial bull in a china shop, but I just can't help wondering about these things considering that every other graphics application I've used has the above-mentioned file format drop-down and doesn't support GIMP file format.
Thank you for taking the time to read (and hopefully, kindly) response. I have to admit, it makes me a bit nervous to say these things while that angry face icon on the left watches my every move.
