Just an update on the situation on WBMP images.

I have the code working again (it stopped for a while after
some API 
changes were checked in).

I hope to be able to produce an extension for Firefox on
Windows. I'll 
probably won't try however until Firefox 3 beta 2 comes
out.

I cannot provide the extension for Firefox 2, or for Macs.
I'm not in a 
position to provide it for Linux at the moment - that might
be possible 
in the long term, but I don't feel like I have the time or
energy for 
it. (Technically minded users can always compile the
extension 
themselves of course.)

(Finally, I saw a comment on a newsgroup which implied that
image 
decoders could be implemented in Javascript, which I hadn't
realised 
before. If so then it might after all be possible to produce
a 
cross-browser version of the extension. I wouldn't hold your
breath 
though...)
