Grazer Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Why is it when I try to save pics, they keep saving as .bmp files - even when the source file is not .bmp? I cannot change the file extension in "Save as type" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Does this happen with IE? Try clearing out your internet cache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Copy/Paste the image into an app that can save as Jpeg ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot change the file extension in "Save as type" Mine does the same. I have to save them as a bmp then open them up in my photo editing software, then save them as a jpg file.

Grazer Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 Normally that's what I would do, but (and it's a big BUT!) - I was trying to save an animated gif - so obviously that wouldn't work. Hmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted December 27, 2004 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Delete your cached web pages, temporary internet files, history and cookies. Then reboot. I guarantee you that'll fix the the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazer Posted December 27, 2004 Author Share Posted December 27, 2004 OK - I'll try it in 1hr 11mins (encoding The Two Towers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
