Trouble changing RGB to CMYK
#3
Thanks very much, Rich2005, that worked for installment.

Is there any way to use Gimp to paint on the CMYK image? Compared to the RGB image, the CMYK image lost a lot of color subtlety (didn't just change the colors). I'm working with Gimp on an image of Franz Marc's painting of a horse, and the RGB version has many shades of color. But with the CMYK version it's like someone just threw a bucket of bright red paint on the horse and the many shades of red, pink, orange, shadow and light, are gone. 

If there is no way to use Gimp to paint on CMYK, is there a way to alter the conversion from RGB to CMYK so that, even if the colors change, at least the subtlety and variety of color is not so badly lost?

Thanks again very much for any further ideas...
