Re: [Gimp-user] HATE the new save vs. export behavior

[Kasim Ahmic <kasim ahmic gmail com>]

Honestly, this new export/save method is pointless to me. I rarely ever use XCF files unless I'm working with 
a project that stretches over days and I need to constantly make changes to a file with many layers.

99.9% of the time I simply import a PNG or JPEG, edit what I need to edit, and Save (well export rather). 
Then I check it in a browser and if there's a mistake, I go back fix it and hit Save. It's just so much 
simpler that way without all the extra "features" like Export, Export To, and Overwrite.
