Need help with AOL

MileHi

[MileHi]

I need to save a picture so my son can use it in Power Point. Right click only lets you choose *.art or *.bmp files, we need *.jpg. This is default in Netscape. Anyone else (who is unfortunate enough to have AOL) know how to do it?

Mods, I'll ping you to pull this if you indulge me 'till I get some help.

Thanks FReepers

[MileHi]

I got AOL free with my Dell, guess I won't keep it long....

Save it and pull it into another program and convert it.
Or send the pic to me and I will do it for you.

You can open the ie browser that probably also is on the computer. Minimize AOl, then click on the e that is either on the desktop, or in the program list....

Send it to me and I'll do it for you. I await your FRmail.

[MileHi]

What converts it? Thanks for the reply, BTW.

Here's everything you need to know about AOL.

But seriesly, log on to the internet using AOL. Then minimize AOL and double click on Internet Explorer. Go to the website where the photo is located & you should be able to save it in .jpg format.

AOL well and truly SUCKS.

Failing that, where is the picture located? I can go there & e-mail it to you.

Paint will convert it.

[MileHi]

Can you send attachments in FReepmail? Never did it.

The browser will probably only let you save it in the same format as the original source. Once you have saved it, you have to use an image processing program to convert the format.

Right-click and copy (not save as), but paste into a graphics program like paint. Once in paint you can save as a jpg or you can recopy and paste it into any MS Office program.

If you have photoshop, right-click and select copy, then open photoshop and select new. The default option will be the right size, so accept then paste the drawing in. Modify and save in any format you want.

[MileHi]

LOL! No doubt.

[snippy_about_it]

You can save it as is then open it in paint and clic save as, use the drop down arrow to select jpg.

I use adobe photoshop for most all my graphics needs on windows and gimp on solaris and linux.

[annyokie]

No. FRmail me and I'll give you my email address.

[MileHi]

Thanks. Give me a minute to play here so the Mods can pull this. I'll be back. You guys are awesome but I'm not that fast so hang on.

[MileHi]

LOL! I was on AOL "help for 20 mins and they didn't help. The guy in New Deli was hard to understand. We got it. You folks are too much, thanks.

Mods, will you jerk this down and thanks

[MileHi]

BTW, gotta run so he can finish homework, thanks again.

Hello MileHi
To you and those who have AOL--dump one of the biggest "spyware" programs " on the web today. Anytime you have to use someones "software" (juno and net zero are as bad) to get on the net , they have full control over your browser. If you have netascape, dump them too, Ditto.
If you are going to keep your current configuration anyway here is a great FREE program that is absolutely awesome for converting ANY file you have:http://www.irfanview.com
When you come to something you hope to save as a jpeg, but comes up anything esle, this program converts it with ease. I use it all the time because there is so much you can do in resizing, sharpening, contrasting, etc.
Very, very easy to use and you'll love it.

P.S.If you want a pop-up free "home" page with no ads, banners, etc go to myway.com they're excellent. Great personal page set up, great news, various categories you choose and 6 mgs of email!

I love ifraniew!

If you have netascape, dump them too,

Netscape is basically Mozilla with reduced functionality and ads built in.
