Every image used within a GroIMP project, e.g., a colouring texture of a 3D material, is shown in the Image Explorer. Its structure is similar to the File Explorer. New images can be added to a project via the menu Object/New: Currently, this menu contains only the item From File which reads an existing image file into the project. All file formats which are supported by your installation of the Java Image I/O Framework are readable, these are at least Portable Network Graphics (`png`), JPEG and Graphics Interchange Format (`gif`). If a format you need is not supported by your installation, see Section “Installation of Plugins for the Java Image I/O Framework”. As for the File Explorer, you have the choice to link or add image files to the project.
