It kept happening no matter what I tried UNTIL I tried this anchoring.  Then
I flattened after I anchored.  I could then save it with any file
extension.  Remember that I am using the Gimp version for Mac on my macbook
so that possibly makes my experience a bit different from a Windows or Linux
Gimp user.  If you see "floating selection" appear over in the layers
palette as its own layer in your version of Gimp though, anchoring will
solve your problem.
