Here at Civfanatics and at 'Poly, when I try to save linked, attached, or uploaded pictures in posts, it only allows me to save them as bitmaps, and those bitmaps have the default filename "untitled" Anyone know what is happening and how I can fix it? I am running IE6.0 on Windows XP Home Edition. Thanks!

Instead of clicking "save as" for the image, just right click the image (without highlighting it) and click "copy." Open your favorite picture editory and just paste the picture into that.
I have the exact same problem!!!
The weird thing is that I used to be able to save them as jpg just fine, but one day I tried to save something and I could only do it as bmp. I've tried everything, but nothing works.
I'm running XPPro, IE 6.0.2800.blahblahblah, and when I right click and select "Save Picture As...", I get a JPG option. Hmmm. . . must be a XPHome thing.
It's a hassle, I know, but you might have to save it as a bitmap and convert it to JPG via paint. It sucks, but it works.
Speaking of picture editors, is there a good download you would recomend? I have an old Adobe program from two computers ago. Its OK, but it wont interface with the cheap digital camera I have. Also the cleanup tools are clumsy.
