thanks for the link, the supported formats list sure is impressive.

for the actual IO of image formats we already use external libs (nothing
fancy, just the ones available on basically any *nix box: libpng,
libtiff, etc.). However, there is still some (usually small) amount of
code required to integrate these libs with OpenSG's ImageFileHandler and
for writing images this has not been done for many formats.

Carsten
