ThirdView is pretty good at viewing true color pictures on the IIGS.  But
if your installation and deinstallation of it has caused the "can't find
application" error, you can pretty much bet the "registry" for the IIGS
(either the Icon files or the Desktop file in the Icons folder) has registered
JPEGs to ThirdView.  Now I figure you want to reregister another
program to take care of JPEG files.  The solution is to reinstall that
original program.  Thus will cause a new link to be created between the
JPEG file type and the original viewer.
