How do I change my picture back to its originality using Gim - Conrad - 01-21-2011
I used the heal brush on my picture using gimp but I messed up. I accidentally closed Gimp and that mistake stayed with my picture. Every time I load Gimp again the mistake can't be undone or I just don't know how. How do I turn my picture back to its original photo? I am using Gimp 2. 6

Simply put. . . . you can't.

Usually you will have the original copy of the pic & the edited one.
But if you don't have that, then you simply can't . I'm sorry ):

You've just learnt an important lesson, you only ever edit a copy, never the original.
When you open an image in Gimp the first thing to do is use 'save as' to save the picture with a different filename and work on that.
If the original is still on your card then download it again.
Otherwise - sorry.
