I have been compiling a selection of images of my son since his
childhood in preparation for his marriage later this year, but when I
exported those I'd tagged I found a number of the exported files were
damaged. The original image seems to be present, but overlaid with
offset and darker versions.

I have noticed this phenomenon occasionally on viewing images within
Shotwell, but the problem seemed to go away spontaneously.

I've also been able to export one of the affected files successfully,
and you can view the original, a successfully exported version and the
failed version at:

http://rotarycupar.org/download/IMG004 rescanned GOOD.jpg
http://rotarycupar.org/download/IMG004 rescanned ORIGINAL.jpg

I haven't done any systematic experiments to pin down this phenomenon -
I've been able to work around it - and I'm not certain that I used the
same compression setting when I generated the "GOOD" image as when the
"BAD" image was exported.

I'd be happy to do some further tests with expert guidance on what to
try.
