It's n2ss01.pcx - the number ascending as you take more 'shots'.

Remeber though, that N2 will always start from 01 upon loading so if
you want to keep any shots you take, be sure to rename them or move
them elsewhere..

It's then just a case of loading that .pcx up in PSP (or whatever) and
saving in into the .gif or .jpg file type...

Happy snapping!
