I gave it a shot (MocOS 10.4), but it is unable to load png images  
(pygame.error: File is not a windows BMP file). I tried loading a  
libpng/libjpeg binary and then reinstalling pygame, but that didn't  
help. Note I do have 1.7.1 installed via fink and it doesn't have this  
problem.

Is there something else I need to install?
