    Fingers99,

    Yeah, I knew Gimp would read them, thats what I was using to "see" them before with, I just wanted to do this in a "quick view" idea.

    With Gimp, I had to locate a "cryptic" file name for the image, load it, and find out what it looked like, if it wasn't what I wanted, unload it, and load the next one, etc... Real hard to do when you are looking at over a thousand WMF image files, and no clue what they look like, or for that matter, are an image of...

    With the thumbnail viewer, I can go into Konq and "see" all the images in one window, examine what they are, and decide which ones I want, without having to load them first, one at a time.

    But, thanks, as well, having more avenues, and options, is always a good thing

    Yay! Thank goodness. Sorry it had to be such an ordeal.

    You can drop those WMF graphics right into your OpenOffice.org docs (in the Writer, Insert | Graphics | From File...) without having to convert them to another format first.

    I was thinking about backing up my home dir, along with any stray docs, then restoring to Knoppix 3.4, once it comes out. (Then again, I'm having so much fun with Kanotix that I haven't run Windows in 3 days, so I may stick with it.)
