Alright, so I've been looking around on this site on how to open a big PNG image. The question I found was about a 10M png. Xee apparently did the job.
So, I downloaded Xee for my 60M file, but it crashes. So does iPhoto, Pixelmator and previewer. In the Pixelmator and Xee case, I actually had to kill the computer, and restart it. It crashed so 'hard' I couldn't get it to respond again.
How do I open this file? (and zoom it)
Specs:
newly acquired macbook pro: 4gb memory, 2.3ghz i7
58M png image
approx: 15000x30000 pixels
