Are you saying that you can only save in .bmp format? If so there is a patch that you can download from Microsoft that fixes that. Let me find it.

You cannot attach more than one image, but you can use the [ img ][ /img ] tags (without the extra spaces) to show more than one if you have them hosted on some other website. Also do you have those files in .BMP format or are these the ones you use for your desktop?

Also, I haven't found out anything "good" yet Miko, but here is what I have found about Paint and .jpg, .gif. and .bmp formats descending in what I think is most likely your problem to least likely:

Cannot View Files Other Than Bitmaps in Microsoft Paint (Q251351)
When you try to use Microsoft Paint to open a graphic file other than a bitmap (.bmp) file, you may be unable to do so. However, you may be able to do so on a different computer in Paint.
Some Office Graphics Filters Are Not Available in Microsoft Paint (Q298580)
After you install Microsoft Office 2000 and have chosen to install all of the graphics filters, you may not see the following filters in the
FP98: Invalid Page Fault in MS Paint after FrontPage Setup (Q194439)
When you attempt to load a page which contains a JPEG File Interchange Format (.jpg or .jpeg) or CompuServe GIF (.gif) image, you receive the following error:

When you attempt to load a page which contains a JPEG File Interchange Format (JPEG) or CompuServe Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) image, you receive the following error:

It is none of those, i am sure. I did everything the instructions told me, but i cannot save the file as a .jpg file, only as a .bmp file, and for some reason, you can't attach those. But thanks for the help anyway.

Check out this little proggy: http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-10077-100-7963789.html?tag=st.dl.10001-103-1.lst-7-4.7963789

It's a free screen capture program.. only 1.6 MB in size. I no longer allow BMP files because it is a very inefficient image format for web site posting.

Thanks, TF! Works like a charm!
Now people, behold the beauty of my desktop!
