Wes, You may have 2 problems: color density and size. The ToasterPaint doesn't like anything less than 24 bit color. (Try loading a gray scale image to see what I mean). Also, if you are not 752 x 480 it can be a problem, especially if it is larger in the x dimension. But of these two, the color depth is the most important, I think. In HiJaak, check if it has an IFF24 available that will allow you to save it out as a 24 bit IFF. If you have the older HiJaak it may only allow 4 or 8 bit color. The easiest would be to take the file off the PC as TIFF, then laod into ADPro, scale so that x:y pixel aspect is 1:1.17 then save as IFF 24 bit. ToasterPaint will load it no problem then. wmc – via Autopilot!
