Save as type?
Periodically I save images that I like so I can remember a pose, an outfit, etc. Running WinXP. When I hold my mouse over the image and click on the save as icon, I only have a choice as saving it as a bitmap (.bmp file). Is there a way to add a file type of jpg to that drop down menu? Paul Sep 12 05 11:33 pm Link Nope ..Best thing to do is use Fire Fox its an IE issue Chet Sep 12 05 11:34 pm Link Ya, it's some sort of IE bug. It only happened to me on occasion and reloading the page usually fixed the problem and let me save as jpeg. Sep 12 05 11:46 pm Link Reloading doesn't help me. I do have a work-around. I click on the email button and then drag the attachment file to a folder I have set up for these files. Then I just abandon the email. Kind of a kludge, huh? And thanks, Chet.

Paul Sep 13 05 02:31 am Link Its a cookie that somehow got stored in your cache.. I used to have that problem when I was using IE. Every now and then it would pop up. Empty your cache, including your cookies and it should resolve the problem. Just a little warning though. If you use any sites to track stocks or anything which "remembers" you, you will lose those settings. Hope this helps. Oh, and switch to Firefox while you're at it.. someone recommended that to me last Spring, and it sure has resolved a lot of headaches. Sep 13 05 02:36 am Link It's not a cookie. It's a full temp file directory, clearing just the files will do the trick. Tools -> Internet Options -> Delete Files. Sep 13 05 02:58 am Link I'll be damned. Worked like a champ. Thanks, Mike.
