Default Question about saving photos.
Do you save both a copy of the original and the PP'ed version? Or just the PP'ed version.

I usually work in Gimp. I always duplicate the "Background" layer and rename it "Original", and never touch "Original" again (except possibly for cropping, rotation, etc.) I do everything else with the duplicate layer, and other layers on top of it. That way, I have an original and any level of post-proccesing which I'd like, available at any time.
