I don't think anythig was actually wrong with the logic... actually,
it wasn't really a question of logic (I apologize - I was in a bad
mood when I wrote that message and it probably shows...) - All I meant
was that it is supposedly an extension to JPEG that more than 1 camera
support (most likely a new compression algorithm so that they can
store more pictures) so it should be able to be viewed by V and Amiga
datatypes.

Like I said in my original message - my friend said some others
couldn't see the pictures either (Netscape and MSIE users) - but I was
at work when he showed me the site, and we were using Netscape, so it
is apparently supported at some point by at least Netscape.
