Hello,
The model in f-spot is that the original images are not modified. Instead when changes are done to an image a new "version" is created, so you always keep the original in case you want to apply more effects.
I agree that it is not intuitive at this point. But it is very useful if you want to produce various images by cropping the same photo and using different versions in different cases.
I cooked once a patch to do effects, but it only did one effect: make the image more red, more green or more blue. Hopefully a framework like that (with Undo) will make it into F-Spot at some point (in the same spirit as Picassa).
