If this suceeds it will be my first posting.  The format of the
scrapbook file is very simple; the data fork is empty, 'pages'
are placed in the resource file sequentially as they are pasted in.
The ordering between resource types is kept by the SMAP resource,
the body of which is simply 255 bytes; the first gives the page
number of the first resource of the first type, the second of the 
first type second resource and so on.
I would think that you could safely ignore the SMAP though, just
opening the resource file and sequentially fetching whatever
(PICT I presume) will give you the pictures in the sequence they
were pasted.  I wrote a utilty for Microcomm a few months back
that dealt with scrapbook files, craftily reserving the rights;
if your interested I'll send you the source.
