I just downloaded the MP source code and just looking around in it. Hopefully create a plugin sometime soon.

I noticed one thing in the source code about how you load the images.

This is usually done this way in MP
[code]
using (Image img = Image.FromFile(fileName))
{
//do stuff
}
[/code]

What is a great way to load images, maybe 100 times faster, is this way

[code]
using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(fullName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read))
{
using (Image g = Image.FromStream(fs, true, false))
{
//do stuff
}
}
[/code]

The reason this is alot faster is that Image.FromFile(fileName) does some type of check on the image.
