GetFileSize always gives the file size, no matter what file type it is. If you get zero, then probably the file doesn't exist or it's of zero size. Or maybe it's locked and can't be opened.

This works ok, in my XP box:

Name "png_size"
OutFile "png_size.exe"
ShowInstDetails show

Function FileSizeNew 
 
  Exch $0
  Push $1
  FileOpen $1 $0 "r"
  FileSeek $1 0 END $0
  FileClose $1
  Pop $1
  Exch $0
 
FunctionEnd

Section -
Push "C:\joel\sshot-1.png"
call FileSizeNew
Pop $0
DetailPrint "$0 bytes"
SectionEnd

Section -
Push "C:\joel\Mis imágenes\sshot-1.png"
call FileSizeNew
Pop $0
DetailPrint "$0 bytes"
SectionEnd

C:\joel\Mis imágenes\sshot-1.png bytes
Completed

Hmm. I use that function with spaces without trouble. Perhaps the accent on imagines is causing the problem? Try the unicode build.
