Steve, if you're ok with bmp's now, then fine.

I use Paint Shop Pro too, and it can convert bmp to jpg (which is a compressed format) in seconds, amd there's no noticeable loss in pic quality.

If you still have probs then mail me, and we'll sort it out.

Regards

Darret.

A note for editing pics...

Just a note for those who edit photos - it's best to save your work and edit using the bitmap format. The JPG format compresses the data & when you open and save multiple times, the already compressed data gets the compression treatment again.

I mention this because I have seen way too many pictures obviously degraded by being compressed a number of times.

As mentioned above, almost any graphics program will do a "Save As" so you can convert from the most common formats. I started with some $10 programs on Best Buy's low price shelves before moving to Photoshop Elements. The software on the 'savings' shelves is usually the old version where they pack the CD (program only - usually the other CD's do not get packaged) in its own jewel case, and leave out the documentation. This software is usually all most folks need. I just got hooked on Photoshop Elements because it was bundled with the computer. I have found nothing in the more expensive programs to justify purchasing them.

I think somebody mentioned "Thumbs", that is a great free thumbnail and more program!! If you are squeezed for space, it does not take much HD room at all.
