Not sure if this is a OS glitch, a gremlin, or an undocumented option...but as an experiment once I simply changed the file extension on a graphic and it worked! I had a .jpg d/ld from the Net that would not open in any of my graphics programs....I changed the extension to .bmp and "behold" it snapped right in. Once I had it opened as a BMP I simply resaved it back as a .jpg and it was okay.
I then tried it out on other graphic extensions and it worked on all of the popular ones. Sounds like a magic mushroom dream but on my system it actually works. {Edited to point out that I am running Win98 SE.}
