PCPaint stores pictures in a 16k screen image format.  I have successfully
loaded them and fiddled with them from other programs.  The utility 
I use for picture shows is Grafix Partner, which sits in memory like
Sidekick, and allows you to capture any medium res image on the screen.
Now that I think about, maybe I didn't use PCPaint's format, after all-
only scarfed the pix with G.P.  wait one...

Just dropped out for a second and checked. Sure enuf, it works fine.
I renamed sailing.pic from the PCPaint disk to sailing.bsv and
the Grafix Partner "cycle" program displayed it just fine.  Cycle
allows you to make a list of pictures to show and how long they will
be up.
