http://www.irfanview.com/ is very good for all those types of files.
BTW, another question. Why do games use TGAs for images? I don't understand why they don't just use bitmaps or jpgs...
Irfanview is a great freeware viewer, but it won't let you edit them. For image editing try photoshop.
TGA's are used because of the much better image quality which scales cleanly to different sizes. JPEG's are compressed which causes them to lose quality. It's like the difference between optical zoom and digital zoom on a camera.
Oh, so that's why. Thanks.
