New User Experience ...

Oops didn’t know that, using a Beagleboard myself. The Pi has different packages?

The Pi ‘armv5’ package list is a sanitised version of the riscpkg.org and riscos.info packages, with various packages hidden because they don’t work on the Pi. Previously FTPc was in that category. Good to know that it’s fixed – I’ve now removed it from the blacklist so it should be available.

How do I convert Image Format X to [JPEG/TIFF/PNG/etc]

I have actually started on this wimp frontend for image conversion (registered as !ConvImgs). It is at the stage that it will take image types of Sprite, PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, TIFF as input (in any combination) and output them as one of Sprite, PNG, JPEG, TIFF. The only processing it can optionally do at the moment other than the actual format conversion is rotate left 90, right 90, rotate 180, flip horizontal, flip vertical. If anyone would like to act as an alpha tester let me know and I will tidy it up a bit and write some Help.
