you did say to move on but thought you might want to consider what i just did:

saved as "all files" - opened in mspaint - then just saved as a png opened in PS and hey presto, your image...

that was just a first attempt too - so not sure if i even needed to save as "all files" nor if i needed to save as a png...

In every stone sleeps a crystal.
Remember the Shaman, when he used to say:
Man is the dream of the Dolphin"
