In computing, FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used to transfer data from one computer to another over a network, such as the Internet. You can use ftp to send and receive files to and from Gmp Graphics. FTP uses the Internet to transfer files from your computer to your Gmp Graphics computer. You can send any type of images, such as PSD, TIFF, RAW, JPEG, etc. You should not use ZIP unless absolutely necessary. Gmp favors individual files in a specific folder. When you upload files to Gmp Graphics, create a folder and put all the files in the folder. As mentioned above, in the same way, files can be received from Gmp via FTP.
