Hi Bryan:

I did look at GIMP and it loads PNM formatted files without issue but that
is the only format it has... It is too bad as it would be a great program
for doing web development or even high-end graphics now it will be no more
than a good program with a limited market.

Since it's a standard Linux graphic file format, have a look at Gimp.
http://gimp.org

It looks like it will open PNMs and I know it will save jpgs.

Best part, its open source and free.
