im making a continuum skin

I use photoshop CS which doesnt display pixel coordinates (as far as i can see)

is there a program (graphic, or viewer) that can allow me to see pixel coordinates (.bmp files)

(i need the pixel coordinates to designate hotspots, etc.)

I'm pretty sure photoshop would display the pixel coords; somewhere. Guaranteed.

I know paint shop pro displays them in the status bar; not sure about The GIMP.

Ctrl-R turns rulers on, and the Navigator window shows exact pixel coords as you move the mouse around. Ctrl-" turns grids on, and you can set how many pixels per major and minor grid.

dude I am not talking about the ruler

if you have all the measurements you want set to pixel in Edit > Preferences > Units & Rulers (I believe the first drop-down handles what you want), then just click on the "Info" tab at top right (default windows setup) and you will see little coordinates wherever you point on the canvas
