[Resolved] Gif and Jpg

[Rat_Attack]

I am having troubles saving gif and jpg files... Sometimes they save and sometimes they dont save in the right format and I cant open them...most times if I create them in paintshop pro4 they will save properly but most times when i save either format from the net they wont save properly... can I fix this?

Hi,

This is generally a memory issue.

Go to IE tools, internet options, general tab and delete all temporary internet files. You may also need to shut down all other programmes except for Internet Explorer itself

But also have a look at the following MS article: Internet Explorer Does Not Save Graphics Files in the Proper Format

Good luck,

2 questions: are you using IE6 ? On one of the images you can't open when you right click on it and go to properties what is the MS-DOS name of the JPG.

Add .jpg or .gif to the file name.
You will in some image programs get a box saying not the right format when you try to open it.
But if it opens ok then make a copy of it and save it again to clean out the junk code.
