Great site, but the jp2 files wouldn't open on my 'puter. Sooooo I did some looking and found an image converter freeware that will open not only the jp2000 file extentions, but a list of OTHER file extentions as long as my arm. My Windows XP Home addition NOW has this free application PLUS a bunch of plug-ins that will open about anything. I've noticed that the good ole U.S.of A. government has some off the wall file extentions that maybe unique. NOW I'll be able to read them. Oh yeah, you can save the openned files to anyother extentions such as jpg, tif, and bmp, to name 3 of the most used.

Anyway, here's the site: www.irfanview.com

Even if your OS opens the jp2 files, you may want the ability to open all those other type files. I found this application through the Kim Kommando site and she checks out all things she allows to link to her website.
Enjoy!!
