Bill: I do not have that problem using mpl-0.90.1 or svn which I checked out and installed yesterday. I have gimp-2.2.17 and have no problems opening them on my linux system or my two XP systems at work. The issue I do find is that when I specify the DPI in the savefig command, it does not properly get encoded into the png, although the size of the graphic is set accordingly. So maybe that is a clue to what's happening to you. You are saving them as "something.png", right ?
