IrfanView is nice. It's quick to open and to use.

I tend to use IrfanView also. Its a viewer (which will let you resave images to other formats). That makes it handy also for browing the maps in the maps directory since its one of the few Ive found that understands both RGB and TGA

Odd... I haven't been able to open RGBs with IfranView, though it does list RGB as a supported format in the help files. Maybe I have a corrupt/vista install?

I think its one of the "plugins". Mine has a ton of plugins.
I dont remember which ones I got for what purposes.

Oh well, I've got the GIMP and I know how to use it.

I can even type the above phrase without any second thoughts.

... I once checked a book about GIMP out of the library and got a few strange looks.

It is good to know you can google gimp and the first ten results will all be relevant and work safe.

See the second entry if the slang is unfamilar to you.

I love the O'Reilly books on deeper internet stuff. As an admin for internet servers its kindof required to have a shelffull even if you dont read them. But I love their "cookbooks" which are great for slightly ADD people like me. Lots of short little answers to common problems.

And I get great looks when its a Linx Cookbook or an AWK Cookbook or Python Cookbook. I was thinking one day that a GIMP Cookbook might be fun to carry around also.
