Works; well done:



Side note - the Xfce image viewer ristretto will not open the saved images - error states that it is not a jpeg file, starts with 0x89 0x50. Images open fine in firefox and geeqie.

Thanks for the feedback PackRat! And sorry for the delay! A few (read many) things kept me away from computers and this forum!
Your observation is correct! A few image viewers failed to open images downloaded by pmxkcd. It happens because of a bug first reported in 2007 and guess what?, it is still open!

eog does not sniff mime type

I have updated pmxkcd to fix this issue! Thanks again RatMan!

Cheers!!!

Works -



although, hit and miss if ristretto will open the image (claims it's not a png image)- although it will show them all as thumbnails; geeqie opened them all no issues.
