- Well, I had a GIF that Pchrome 3.0 would not load, so I converted it to
- a Targa file. Pchrome loaded it perfectly. I would say the problem was
- with your conversion, or that you have discovered a new bug in the
- program. (At least that I didn't know about.) It seems to have trouble
- with certain images for reasons nobody understands. Guess it applies to
- the Targa pictures too.
