Hey Rick, Yes, I have no choice. This in one of many weather icon URLs that our weather provider delivers via their API. I don't know what the image is until it's downloaded and displayed. All of the images to date were/are PNGs. This one seems to be an outlier but I'm worried that more of these may come my way. I Can't open it up in any app(Windows) except for Chrome. I display these icons in the app using 24 of these images(one per hour) in a scrolling group. The browser widget opens the URL and displays the image. If I knew the size I guess I could do some convoluted procedure to resize/export the image from the browser widget to an image to display in a resizable image control. If the browser widget can open it then the open source library for webp must be available (conversion widget?).

Can you convert the image to standard .png before using it or is this something google is forcing you to use?
