Is there a place we can get the specs of the common pic formats, like .jpg, .gif, .bmp, .png, so we can manipulate them with code we write? I'd like to be able to "read" the colors in certain places, stretch or compress the pics on either axis, and overlay two or more pics. Overlaying would mean i will need to do color changing as well. Being able to pick out text in the pics would be really nice too, as well as discern lines. I am thinking of a application on a windoze box, using IE to display the resulting pic file. All i saw in the archives is .xmp, .jpg, and .bmp readers, and wouldn't you know it, the one pic i am sure i want to read is a .jif. Kat
