Description George Gerhold 2012-04-09 20:43:03 UTC 
In version 2.8.0(Windows XP) I get message unable to read header when attempting to load 8 bit tif file created in Raw Therapee Version 4. I do not have this problem with version 2.6.12. When I load a tif file in 2.6.12 and then save it under another name (but as an uncompressed tif), it still will not load, so the
bug may be general for all uncompressed tif files.

Not related to the GIMP website => Moving to GIMP

I got the same problem.
Maybe it is a problem with libtiff.
I renamed libtiff-3.dll to libtiff-5.dll and the problem was gone.
