About the XCF format
XCF (GIMP working format)
GIMP saves layers, channels, paths and selections in XCF so you can come back to the image later. Besides GIMP, few programs open XCF, and browsers and phones don't.
To send or publish the result, convert XCF to PNG - lossless and with transparency - or to JPG, where transparent areas are filled with white (the background color can be chosen in the settings). A file can't be saved as XCF: to edit it, open the original in GIMP.
Best for GIMP projects you need to come back to for editing.
