+Image Viewer
+============
+For your convenience, I've included a simple image viewer in the PSP port.
+You can view anything you want while playing a game.
+There are a few simple rules to follow:
+
+- Images must be of PNG format. If you have images in another format, many
+ graphics utilities will convert them for you.
+- Images must be named psp_image1.png, psp_image2.png etc. This is to make
+ sure there's no possible conflict between image files and game files.
+- Images must be placed in the game directories. When using the image viewer,
+ only the images of the particular game being played will be available for viewing.
+- Don't place any images in the ScummVM directory, or you won't be able to see
+ the images in the game directories.
+- There's no guarantee that you'll be able to view your image. This is because
+ big images take a lot of memory (more than the size of the image on disk). If there
+ isn't enough memory left to show the image, ScummVM will tell you so. Try to make the
+ image smaller by either shrinking it or reducing the colors to 256 color palette mode.
