Re: [Gimp-user] DON'T HATE the new save vs. export behavior

I rather like it actually...

I do GIMP workshops for (mainly) old ladies who don't know the first thing about computers, but enjoy themselves doing silly photomontages and messing around with pictures of their grandchildren. They used to regularly lose their only original versions of pics through not knowing the difference between "save" and "save as" (and also not knowing the meaning of "backup"). 
Now I can relax because this "export" business has created a safeguard against that sort of thing, though I hate to think what will happen if my old ladies (being deviously expert at messing things up) discover the "overwrite" command.
