Greg, I too am running Ubuntu with KDE (isn't it just plain nice?), Ubuntu Breezy Badger to be precise. I installed Scribus-ng plus the docs, using Synaptic. I now have a 1.2-something version of Scribus, the Scribus-cvs and Scribus-ng installed and all working. I can not replicate your problem. I can create a picture box, move it, resize it, import photos into it, replace the contents etc.... I have only tried this using JPGs tho', as those was the only photos I could find. sorry 'bout that Samps
