Steve, <I recently downloaded Earthx.jpg from the IFF files. Yet, when I wanted to display it on Dpaint V it said it "Can't open. Not an IFF file" How do I open files that are not IFF? Do I need a special program?> Correct, that file was in JPEG format. To view it in DPaintV you'll need to convert it first. There are many programs that will do that for you, both commercial, PD, and shareware. There are even some viewers (ViewTek, for example) that will display and then save it in other formats, like IFF. Check the libraries for some of those programs. I'd suggest you search using the keywords IFF, or JPEG, or convert. Asha Another day, another million colors
