I am new to Quantum GIS and have a couple questions. I have some layers from an Arcview GIS that I can use, however, I am having trouble with an ortho layer.<BR>
<BR>
For the ortho layer I have 5 files. They are .img, .img.xml, tif, .aux and .rrd.<BR>
<BR>
The layer shows up on the left part of the screen and I can see its properties and so forth, however, I can't view the ortho image. Transparency is set to none and I have tried with only the ortho layer added as well as along with several other layers with the ortho either on top of the list or on the bottom.<BR>
<BR>
I can't see the image in any case. In the case where the ortho is the only layer turned on if I have transparency set to none everything is black, if at 50% everything is grey, 0% white.<BR>
<BR>
Anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?<BR>
<BR>
Also, I tried to register for the qgis forum several months ago and could never login. If I entered my username (email) and password it said it hadn't been activated but I never received an activation email. I contacted someone and they said their server was having problems. I tried again a few days later with another email with the same results. My issue was that qgis wouldn't install with Fedora 11 so I dropped the matter. Since that time I've upgraded to Fedora 12 and there is a different qgis package for it which does install, however, I still can't login to the forum and I can't use either of my emails because they are both associated with (inactivated) accounts.<BR>
<BR>
Help please
