I wasn't really targeting anyone. However, your response helps me understand that it would be a significant effort. I had seen a plug in for another program called Irfanview so I assumed that it was not extremely difficult. Sorry if I seem ignorant, just thought I'd inquire.

I am not a programmer so this does nothing for me. Maybe this would be helpful in developing further?

"Developers can use the component LEADTOOLS version 14 and 15 from LEAD Technologies to display MrSID files in their own applications." ...From the Wiki link mentioned. I inquire only because there are products using these plug ins already but I like P.N better.

Has anybody decided to work on a SID file format plug in? It is a commonly used file format in Aerial Photographs. I believe LizardTech is the maker? Kind of a wish list request...
