Imagecopy is a very useful utility but alas it seems it holds lots of 
bugs or shortcomings. On my Hades Imagecopy (ic4plus) aborts with 
"Assertion failed: malloc.c, line 228" error when I want to set 
transparancy in a gif. This happens under N_AES and XaAES. The only 
different is that in XaAES ic4plus takes down the system whereas in 
N_AES I can quite ic4plus when I press a buttom.

Also it doesn't like long file names, it doesn't like ext2fs very much, 
etc. ... 

For displaying images I use most of the time zview or Looknsee

I remember I have given BV a long time a try without succes.


Why don't you give Nview/Nconvert a try? Nconvert can convert an awfull 
lot of graphic format.

You can find nview on the Belgian ftp-server: 
<URL:ftp://chapelie.rma.ac.be/atari/graph-tools/>

Look for vw68000.zip or vw68020.zip
