You need to submit the bug-report first. You can then go to the page that has been created for your bug-report and add attachments there.

Please excuse if I've sounded harsh, but you can upset most core gimp developers just by silently mumbling the word "Mandrake" when they're around. This is no personal offense and I promise I'll try hard to restore a neutral position regarding Mandrake. Salut, Sven
