GIMP question!

Post by Garbageman13 »

Hey, I'm guessing I could ask this here, but I'm not sure.

When color enhancing a photo with GIMP, is there a way to de-enhance it after it's been edited?

Thanks and God bless!

Did you try "undoing" it? Click either the undo button or press "ctrl-Z".

Keep a backup of the original.

Like MrBlack103 said, keep a backup and work from a copy.

Also, save and save often.

I said after it's been edited, like a whited out background or something, not how to undo it. I needed to enhance it to help me white out the background, and now it looks alittle too enhanced, and I want to get it back, and not have to get rid of my newly painted white backdrop.
