Thanks Lowell, you were right about the images and documentation.  I thought
I was being so careful to feed the correct numbers to msSaveImage ;-) ...I
should have checked the images in an graphics program.  Anyway, MS_JPEG and
MS_PNG are working great, but Giorgio is right that "In reality gif is 0,
png=1 , jpeg=2."

Thanks again.
