What makes you think that the ".thm" extension has anything to do with the current version of OOo? To the best of my knowledge OOo does not use this extension. If I remember correctly, the 300D uses the ".CR2" or ".CRW" extensions for it's raw format file identification. Could this be the Canon thumbnail image of your pictures? Have you tried making a copy of one of these ".thm" files, renaming it to something like "_test.cr2" and try to open in PS? If you wish, you can email me (directly to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) a copy of one of these files and I will take a look at it's internal structure and tell you if it is a genuine Canon RAW format or not. (PLEASE DO NOT email the file to this list, attachments are removed and if it did get through, other subscribers do not want multi-megabyte files turning up in their inboxes) Hope this helps.
