I found a bug in the current ConTeXt Beta with externalfigure. The following minimal example will show you what happens
\starttext
\externalfigure[cow]
\externalfigure[cow][width=10cm]
\page
\externalfigure[test]
This reads in the file
texmf-modules/doc/fonts/urw/garamond/test.tex
which is not desired. But I assume you have a “test” graphic in your current directory which is used instead, so this is unrelated to your problem.
I think that the advice of omitting the file extension given in most LaTeX introductions is more trouble than it is worth in ConTeXt. Omitting file extensions is important if you are generating both dvi and pdf outputs. In ConTeXt, one never uses the DVI output, so I think that one should ALWAYS specify the file extension. That removes a lot of headaches with the wrong file being sourced. Aditya
