+      signed int.
+      This supports both the DX10 formats and the D3D FOURCC versions.
+      16- and 32-bit per channel images with less than 4 channels are not yet
+      supported.

+      GIMP can load DXGI variants as well as the older D3DF versions, including
+      handling of the signed versions.
+      We also set signed when the pixelformat flag DDPF_BUMPDUDV is set.
+    * New option to vertically flip dds image on import. This is needed by some
+      game engines.
+    * New import option for DDS DXT1/BC1 images to always use transparency. If

+      overwriting.
+   - PNG:
