Hey, back in 1997 (!!) Microshaft came out with what turned into (once
patched) a decent, stable OS. I understand they're still trying to do
better...

In Win98se: .bmp (sorry...), .jpg/.jpeg, .gif.

It *will* open .tif as well, if you tell it to display "All Files"
first.
Can't handle .png, though. Forget any of the more exotic formats. I'm
pretty sure Paint will only save in .jpg,.gif & .bmp.

Anything wrong with .gif format? Granted .png is more elegant &
copyright-issue-free, but .gif does work.
