Imagecopy is a very useful utility but alas it seems it holds lots of
bugs or shortcomings. On my Hades Imagecopy (ic4plus) aborts with
"Assertion failed: malloc.c, line 228" error when I want to set
transparancy in a gif. This happens under N_AES and XaAES. The only
different is that in XaAES ic4plus takes down the system whereas in
N_AES I can quite ic4plus when I press a buttom.
Also it doesn't like long file names, it doesn't like ext2fs very much,
etc. ...
For displaying images I use most of the time zview or Looknsee

I remember I have given BV a long time a try without succes.
Why don't you give Nview/Nconvert a try? Nconvert can convert an awfull
lot of graphic format.
You can find nview on the Belgian ftp-server:
<URL:ftp://chapelie.rma.ac.be/atari/graph-tools/>
Look for vw68000.zip or vw68020.zip
