Actually, my port of ZPhotoAlbum to CMFPhotoAlbum removes any dependancies
for image type, it's just a convenient folder presentation thingie.  So your
images could even be a mixture of Image, CMFImage, FSImage, EXTImage.
Actually, I take it back, you have to modify a couple of lines, where it
filters what kind of files it's presenting, but that's easy to do.
