Nice. I wish I spoke German (that's the language there, right?). Looks like a pretty nice site.

I have try to covert to blend file, gif, jpeg, but i got messages "wrong "filendelse.

Not sure that that translates too, but you should only have to use "File->Save as" and then type the name and file extension, such as "MyFile.jpg". GIMP will save the image in the format specified by the filename extension. There shouldn't be any converting required, unless you need an indexed image (re: GIF), in which case you do "Image->Mode->Indexed" before you save the file.

??? You can /import/ bitmap files from Gimp to Blender, but Gimp doesn't save anything in Blender's .blend format, since .blend is a format for storing 3D scenes, and this doesn't make any sense in the context of the Gimp. I am assuming that you would like to export height maps into Blender? For this, you could use formats like PNG or TIFF, even JPG. You would only need grayscale images for this, AFAIK (no RGB), and I wouldn't recommend converting the maps to indexed colors: a) I'm not sure if Blender could handle this, and b) you lose too much detail.

It's actually French! ;-)

Well...perhaps you already know this, but when you load a graphic file in Blender, you do have the option of "packing" it and making it part of the .blend file. But now, Gimp doesn't save native .blend format files.
