I will like a plugin that shows the estimated time to load like PS does (7 sec @ 28.8 Kbps). But this Save for Web plugin is already useful =)

Yes, you are correct. It works exactly (almost) like Photoshop.

Well, if you’re a GIMP veteran, you obviously don’t need this plugin and will probably produce better results without the plugin using stock GIMP. But, for the rest of us the plugin can be useful.

I’d rather see an “un-photoshop” option – I still occasionally have people pass me .jpg’s that nothing will load because they have some obnoxious photoshop header on them that nothing else recognizes as jpeg.

That said, I can see the usefulness of what it looks like this plugin does – am I correctly interpreting that it gives you a single save window with scaling and format options right there for preview prior to saving?

I’m really sceptical of the usefulness of this addon. Virtually EVERYTHING that is available in that is available in the standard Save As… dialogue. Try it for yourself… open an image, Save As… and expand the “Advanced Options” section (which is collapsed by default) all of those options. One thing missing though is the ability to see a resizeable preview.

So, I’m guessing the thing about this addon is it makes it “more like Photoshop”. No thanks. Many coming from Photoshop to GIMP might be intested in that… but I’ve used GIMP for over 10 years and Photoshop only a few times… so I’m one of those who wishes Photoshop was more like GIMP. :)
