Bear in mind that this is just for my own testing purposes.  I've been
programming Windows apps for long enough to know how to install things on 
other peoples' systems - but system32 is fine for testing.

That sounds reasonable enough but AFAICT the only requirement for png files
to work is that libpng12-0.dll needs to be in the same folder as
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0-0.dll (which it is).  What elements of the structure am I
missing?  Or do they need to be in a specific folder?

Thanks,
