In the past I wrote a script for Nautilus that added an option to the context menu, so we'd right click on a picture -> Script -> Jigsaw and it would convert the image to a gif and run xjig. It even supported selecting multiple images... It received a high wife approval factor at the time. :) Excellent!

I thought of doing something like that, but wanted to make a non-desktop-specific solution. Still, I'd like to see it if you've posted it somewhere. Cool.

Tried to install xjig, but the only thing I can see is the sample picture, no menu so far. How do I accomplish this? Thanks, Will Sorry, new to Linux, running Kubuntu.

There is, at least for now, a copy of my modified, unffocial version of xjig here: http://people.debian.org/~synrg/local/xjig_2.4-12_i386.deb This may or may not work for your particular version of Kubuntu. It's a matter of whether the dependencies can be satisfied within your distribution or not. Will, my changes are still experimental and are not in the official package included in Kubuntu.
