Hi Jon,

I wanted to keep this reply separate from my first reply where I basically
answered your questions

I have my own question, which is:  how would you use jpg files?  Or, what
are you trying to do that requires jpg files?

The reason I ask, or part of the reason, is that dialog controls and
dialogs can basically only use bitmaps.  There are no controls that will
accept a jpg image, only bitmaps.

So for instance if you want to use an image for a button face, you have to
use a bitmap.

Now, my thinking with using GDI+ is that it has the capability to convert a
jpg image to a bitmap.  This might make things easier for ooDialog
programmers.  But, I doubt that ooDialog will ever be *better* at
converting images than ImageMagick.

Anyhow, curious as to what you are thinking about with jpg images.

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing 
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
