GIMP baby step 3



The debate rages on: is GIF better? Is JPG better? I'm still figuring it out. JPG is not lossless -- the noise can get ugly. But the indexing that GIF requires can give your image a strange cartoony quality. I end up saving in both formats.

This image is nothing special, I just took an old digital photo (jpg format) of myself and put it "underwater." No groaning or growling at all. I knew what I wanted to do and how to make the tool do it.
