When I use the Gtk interface on Windows, the image_new_from_file() call only seems to load jpeg files. When I try it with TIFF or BMP, it will load with no error but there is no image loaded. Do I need some extra libraries? The program compiles and links just fine.

Are you sure this is related to Nimrod?

From what I can see in GTK+'s docs: gtk_image_new_from_file always returns a GtkImage even in case of an error, perhaps try using gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file() as suggested by the docs to get more info about the error.
