Help! Gimp stopped working.
#5
Quote:Is gimp backwards compatible? I would like to install gimp 2.8 but would I be able to open the files that were created in gimp 2.10?

Gimp .xcf files are not generally compatible with Gimp 2.8 unless you make sure all layers and modes are in legacy mode. There is a message bottom of the save Image dialogue about compatibility.  Attached a plugin to set an open image into a compatible format. Not always 100% effective.

Nothing automatic that I know. Just keep looking at the gimp.org site. There have been some recent changes.
