Run 'cvs status myimagefile.png' and look at the Sticky Options. If you see -kb they are binary. Unless you have an entry in your cvswrappers file for .png files, these files are probably not checked in as binary. > and if not, how (if it's posible) can I change it so that no > RCS is handled on them? I would checkout your CVSROOT module, cvs co CVSROOT, then add an entry like the following to CVSROOT/cvswrappers: *.png -k 'b' Add a similar entry for all binary file extensions you are likely to add to CVS, like .gif, .jpg, and so on. Then commit the CVSROOT module. Afterwards, you will need to delete then add again all of the .png image files that don't have -kb. You need to go into the CVS repository directory and manually remove the .png,v files. However, I would merely rename them away until you are sure things are good. After you add your .png files again, insure they now have the -kb sticky option, you can then delete the old renamed .png,v files.
