You control what program opens which file type not by GIMP, but (assuming you are using Windows) by Windows. Open 'My Computer', then 'Tools', 'Folder Options', 'File Types'. You will see a long list of file types. I use the simple program "Windows picture and Fax Viewer", which gives a fast preview of your jpeg (or whatever other visuals you want to see quickly). You can add to the 'send-to' menu in Windows explorer (under your user name in the "Documents and Settings" folder) to add functionality to right-clicking on various files. If I decide a particular file needs GIMPing, I just right-click and 'send to' the workhorse. --- In gimpwin-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "twostepyankee" <twostepyankee@...> wrote: > > Hi everyone: > > I'm enjoying this program and learning something new everyday from the > program itself as from the discussions here.
