Hey All,
I have about 160-ish images I scanned in as .tif's (my scanner offers
.bmp, .jpg, .png, and .tif for saving scanned images as) @ 300-dpi. I'd
like to batch export them all to .xcf (for future working with) and .png
(I know I could have chose png to start but I thought .tif would be

I would leave the tifs alone as your original/base files, and only convert
to xcf as you need for processing them. No need to double your disk usage
