Thanks for your help Borys. I must have inadvertently removed the resources.py file when I deleted the .pyc files. I will fix that this evening (I'm serving this out of my computer at home). Or maybe I will just change the code to use the qrc_resources.py file instead, because remembering to copy this file to resources.py gets to be a pain.
I hear you about the image sizes for the Image Clipper help pages. I'm going to see if I can reduce the sizes and still have decent resolution so that the help page can work. I eventually intend to make a help page accessible from the QGIS menus similar to the help for the Image Cutter.
I appreciate the effort that you, Nikos and Agus are putting in to test these plugins. It will be interesting to see if the Image Cutter plugin is useful to people.
I really do enjoy developing in Python. A Canadian guy, Jean-Francois Doyon used to tell me that Python was a great language but I never got around to learning it until this year and I'm really sorry that I didn't learn it sooner.
Bob

Thanks! Now it works. However, the comment marks (""") in lines 1 and 27 of
the dlgimageclipper.py file can't be followed by any indent in order to work on
all systems.
The second notice is about the help images. Today my net connection is in bad
shape ;) and the plugin was dowloading round 10 minutes! :))) It is 100kB of
code + 7MB of images, I'm sure the images could be a bit smaller and/or
compressed :)
Also the image_cutter doesn't load on non-windows systems, because of missing
the resources file. There is the "qrc_resources.py", but the plugin looks for
"resources.py". On your machine (and maybe all windows systems) it works
thanks to the compiled resources.pyc file, but on other systems the pyc file has
to be compiled once again. So you can either remove the "qrc_resources.py" to
"resources.py" or just import the "qrc_resources" module.
In general, it is safe practice to remove all the .pyc files before packaging,
as I've seen some plugin crashes when those files are moved between different
operating systems.
Thanks for the plugins and enjoy Python! :)
