You are
saying "cut and pasted" it seem that is dependent on the native
format of
where they were cut from. Are you not seeing a file extension?
You can extract the picture folder from the archive and rename the
files
with a shorter name to see if your viewer will recognize them. Use
your
archive tool to extract them.
If all else fails you can send me a copy and I will extract them for
you.

Hello,
Did a quick test:
- a cut and pasted picture doesn't seem to trigger a folder 'Pictures'
in the odt folder
- an inserted picture (Insert > Picture > From File) appears in the
'Pictures' folder in the odt zip
That is strange as here it does. I opened a jpg in gimp, cut and
pasted it into a new Writer document. Saved the doc then closed
Writer open the ODT with Archive Manager and the directory is there
with the picture, in PNG format. This all done under Ubuntu and Go-oo
v 3.2 will test with OOo 3.3RC6.

Since the question involved Mac OS X, I created a writer document
and saved it using my MacBook (10.4) with OOo from the OOo website. Then
I cut an paste a PNG file into the document and saved it again. I do not
have Stuffit on my MacBook. (Both saves was to my thumb drive (flash
drive). I then opened the writer document on my Ubuntu 10.4 LST so that
I could use my archive manager. The Picture folder was present with one
file: the same PNG file that I had pasted into the writer document with
a very long file name.
While I do not have Stuffit, when a compressed file is opened in
Stuffit; can you Control+Click on the file in the Picture folder and
open it with Preview? (For people who do not use a Mac, Control+Click
does the same thing that a right click does on Linux and Windows versions.)
