Hi noob question.. how can viewing picture files on ST? like bmp,jpg ect?
needed special (converting) file before? or some rdy pic viewer ?
My system: Atari STE 4MB, OS: SuperTOS 2.06, HD: US/disk 4gb SDcard ,ppera v0.98 HD drivers, USB mouse adapter by me, PSX controller joy adapter by me,  full list of adaption,s games by Petari.

Watching some jpg with 16 million colors on STE is not best idea - will look awful.
Maybe there is some SW what can do it without conversion to usual Atari formats as Degas etc. But it will work very slow.
What's the point in this ?

Best is to use Degas or Neochrome format. PC SW can convert to.

pcsview can do the job for .pcs

There are many many files formats the ST can deal with, so many many tools available.. Depends of what files you want to open/convert of course

AIM, GEMVIEW, Speed of Light, Pixel are few examples..

I have found also the "Deluxe paint viewer" can open pics as [.iff] at 16colors and more..
