I am new to Quantum GIS and have a couple questions. I have some layers from an Arcview GIS that I can use, however, I am having trouble with an ortho layer.

For the ortho layer I have 5 files. They are .img, .img.xml, tif, .aux and .rrd.

The layer shows up on the left part of the screen and I can see its properties and so forth, however, I can't view the ortho image. Transparency is set to none and I have tried with only the ortho layer added as well as along with several other layers with the ortho either on top of the list or on the bottom.

Maybe it's just a matter of choosing a color ramp?
In the properties window for the *.tif raster, in the General section, choose "Pseudo Colors" instead of "Gray scale". If that displays the tiff with a selection of colors, then you'll want to switch to "Color map, and then go over to the Colormap section and set up how many classifications, and what colors for each...

I can't see the image in any case. In the case where the ortho is the only layer turned on if I have transparency set to none everything is black, if at 50% everything is grey, 0% white.

Anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?

Also, I tried to register for the qgis forum several months ago and could never login. If I entered my username (email) and password it said it hadn't been activated but I never received an activation email. I contacted someone and they said their server was having problems. I tried again a few days later with another email with the same results. My issue was that qgis wouldn't install with Fedora 11 so I dropped the matter. Since that time I've upgraded to Fedora 12 and there is a different qgis package for it which does install, however, I still can't login to the forum and I can't use either of my emails because they are both associated with (inactivated) accounts.

Help please
