How is the best way to make a shot black and white using gimp? Is there a specific option or do you just go to the colors section and "desaturate" till it is B&W? Thank you for the help.
 
Desaturating always works, then increase brightness and contrast will probably be required.
Dump Gimp and pick up a cheap version of Photoshop Elements or Lightroom.

Wish it was that simple. I'm a firefighter and live on a tight budget, and any money I have for camera toys I want some glass and a new strobe. Thanks for the help on gimp.
