   Thanks for your report.   
      
   Hmm, that's an interesting problem!   
      
   If I understand you correctly, a workaround would be to go to   
   Preferences -> File Filters and there check "Disable File Filtering".   
   This will of course show all files in the folder, but it means that it   
   will also allow to show files without a file extension, and thus file   
   images without a file extension.    
      
   I have tested to rename a .png file to a filename without a file   
   extension, and that will show properly if I disable the filtering   
   described above, and doesn't show at all in geeqie before doing that.   
      
   If I am correct, in your case, the file doesn't show in the geeqie   
   filelist even after you have started geeqie, right?
