showphoto launches an external program to view the photo. Since you are
using Windows, the path has backslashes, that the receiving program
seems to be treating as escape characters rather than a path (plus, the
default of xloadimage is unlikely to be available there)
Changing to a different viewer would probably fix it. And it will likely
work flawless if you tried the same steps from a *nix machine.
