... The GIMP currently (version 0.54) supports images with only 8 bits per channel. A channel can be thought of as one of the base colors of Red, Green and Blue (thats an over simplification, but we'll go with that for now) in RGB images or the range of intensities that White will range through in grayscale images. ... With 8 bits to work with, every pixel in a GIMP image occupies at least one byte (or more precisely, one octet) of memory. ... Values in the range of 0 to 255 are possible using 8 bits. ...
