What extension is at the end of the file and what are you using to view/change your pics?

Paint Shop Pro is really easy to use and it does more than you'll ever need.

Some pics online have something attached to them that won't let you mess with it unless you really know what you're doing (usually coppywrited stuff). The easiest way to get around that is to take a screen shot of the page and then cut and paste the part you want as a new pic.
