tick the option?
Are you saying in GIMP for saving the file to PNG?

I really never got use to layers.
Sometimes they work for me and other times I must be doing it wrong.

I just "grabbed" all the images, before I read your text about the fix 
you did.  I tend to do that, thinking that the file may be newer than 
the last time I downloaded it.

A few hours ago, I gave a copy of the DVD to the head of our County 
Government.  He was at a meeting I was at, so I told him about the 
project and told him about LibreOffice.  I just sent a follow-up email 
with a lot of text and a few links.  Told him the LO was "the" 
replacement for MSO, and it is free as well.
