   Well, I've got it running like a champ now. Thanks for the offer 
though.  Incidently, malloc() and free() are measureably slower under 
Windows 95.  These generate calls to GlobalAlloc which are still in the 
Win32 API just for compatability. Under Win32 you want to use HeapAlloc 
or VirtualAlloc if you can.  I've also been looking at sucking the JPG 
files into RAM and decoding them from ram because JPG's tend to be 
rather small while they're compressed. I'm not sure if I'll gain any 
speed benefit from doing so yet.
