you obviously didn't read my last reply :)

liblug does what you want and provides a type independent interface (ie.
you can just call 'openfile' or whatever without regard for the actual type
be it jpg, gif,tiff etc...).  the supported types are determined by you
when you compile the library.

if you want to do it the hard way then there are the libjpeg and libgif
(IIRC) libraries

it took me about 5 minutes using a 33.6k link to search alta vista for
'graphics libraries linux' and find a nice link :
http://sal.jyu.fi/F/4/LIBGR.html

no idea if it will actually do what you want because i hadn't even heard of
that library until now but the description sounds absolutely perfect for
you (don't know about gif support but i'm sure you could add that if you
wanted to using the libgif library)

there's a number of other promising links - just crank up netscape and go
to your favourite search engine (try repeating my search on alta vista as
well)
