At the risk of lengthening this thread... :) I agree with Peter - saving in a lossy format is a last-step operation in a good workflow. I respect the case of simple tweak and saving, but in the long run, all users should never being able to choose "save" and then lose data. I expect the "Save" command to retain *all* data: not just some. Just because most image editors throw away parts of your file, there's no reason for GIMP to follow suit (anyone ever play Lemmings?). save != lose I see recent activity on the 'Save for Web' dialog. Once completed, it should offer the user enough ways to publish a lossy image for end-use while retaining a lossless original image. Exporting is preferable to a "lossy save". The solution of presenting the dialog on first save is a Good Thing (thanks Sven!). Having a lossless workflow is a Better Thing, and hopefully the direction of the future.
