Mike Howe,

Can you suggest a good, inexpensive JPEG, GIF, or PNG editor for either
Windows or DOS?

Although the graphics available here at www.chessvariants.org is suitable
for the purpose at hand, I'm tempted to try my hand at changing some of
the graphics around.  What programs do you use?

Unfortunately, my Windows computer crashes a lot.  That means working on
an ordinary 68000 system (plain vanilla ST, 2.5 megs, but at least it's
stable) or a PC that runs DOS.  Sigh.  If only my HP laserfonts from the
olden days could be modified for use on Internet, or changed around so
they could be imported into Windows - but it seems like 99 out of 100 PC
users have never even HEARD of laser font ID codes, or font management ESC
sequences, it's hopeless to even broach the subject, and have them
understand what I am talking about.)  If you remember seeing my fonts from
1988, they were actually pretty good for 300 dpi laserprinter graphics.
