What format did you try to save them in? IIRC, there's some plugin (luratech, or the one jp2k one, I think) thatgives that message if you try to save a pic larger than a specified limit or some such.
(I know that message has come up once before, a few years ago, I think.)

the file source is PNG format, 32x32 pixels. the destination format is GIF, non-interlace, keep transparent by pixel 0. its iconic size, so i believe that the problem is not the file size.

after those failure, i decide to remove it all, reboot my windows and reinstall again.
second install using filehippo.com installer which is resulting the same error message.
while installing, i only check jpeg200 lib and uncheck other options, because i see at other thread that some plugins may kill xnview.

any other hint?

according to image properties command from xnview:

bits per plane: 32
# of plane: 1
bits per pixel: 32

Ok, the problem is alpha channel. If you remove it, no more problem..

GIF doesn't support alpha channel, only index transparency
