JPEG happens to be *widely* used, and uploading photos from a digicam is what vast amounts of people seem to be doing all the time. I don't mind having a special case for rotating such an image in ShowImage. Not a big deal to program, but a big deal if it's missing. Though as was mentioned, ShowImage does lossless rotation right now. That is, if your images happen to be on a BFS volume like your cameras flash disk or your backup CD-ROM. ;-) Best regards, -Stephan
