Click on the "File" menu.
Then, click on "Save As..." in the list.
It should say something like "(name of picture).xcf"
Highlight the ".xcf", then delete it.
Then replace it with another file type, like ".jpg" (That's the file type I always use anyways~)
Then it should be saved as a picture instead of a Gimp project. x3
Hope I helped, even if it's just a little bit >3<

^-^ lol you're welcome i guess x3

o lol had that problem before too :b
the thing is you're probably not saving it as an .xcf file, and it automatically saves as a .jpg or whatever kind of file it originally was
all you gotta do is go to "save as" and save it as an xcf. Either type it in where the ".jpg" or whatever extension is, or there should be a drop-down menu

Or youh could just draw the lines manually. Still looks good just not as neat.

It's also much harder for people who don't have tablets, and even for people who aren't used to tablets ^-^
