psd files

Hello. I've got a bunch of psd files that I need to convert to a useable format; I don't have a photoshop application. Gimp can't open them, though it can save to the psd format and then reopen those files that it has saved to the format. I read that there a two different types of psd formats, and that the newest one is a closed standard. Perhaps the files I need to open are those newer formats.

What are my options? Is their an extension to gimp that can open these files? Or is there some other tool that can convert them to a standard image format. They are just pictures. I have no reason to preserve layering and such.

Thanks Chad

Try ImageMagick.
