If some of your scanned photos do not look colorful enough, you can easily improve their tonal range with the "Auto" button in the Levels tool (Layer->Colors->Levels). If there are any color casts, you can correct them with the Curves tool (Layer->Colors->Curves).

Not all effects can be applied to all kinds of images. This is indicated by a grayed-out menu-entry. You may need to change the image mode to RGB (Image->Mode->RGB), add an alpha-channel (Layer->Transparency->Add Alpha Channel) or flatten it (Image->Flatten Image).

Pressing and holding the <tt>Shift</tt> key before making a selection allows you to add to the current selection instead of replacing it. Using <tt>Ctrl</tt> before making a selection subtracts from the current one.

The GIMP supports gzip compression on the fly. Just add <tt>.gz</tt> (or <tt>.bz2</tt>, if you have bzip2 installed) to the filename and your image will be saved compressed. Of course loading compressed images works too.
