Re:Bad .jpg quality with Gimp (on Linux) (Score 1)

JPEG encoding is always a touchy subject. Even PS IMHO is a bit under. I always end up having to save as PNG/TIFF and do the final encoding in PhotoImpact, because of better options/quality. And no, "Save for Web..." just won't cut it. Its always mind bending to watch the JPEG encoder ruin all your carefully crafted unsharp masking...
