deadhead Louie, have you ever had a problem with AOL, trying to save a graphic, and it will only save as an .art or .bmp -

Sure have.

HOW TO FIX:
If you're using Internet Explorer:
Click 'tools'
Click Internet Options'
In the pop-up box click
Delete Files....then click Delete History'

This should take care of the prob, it works for me. What happens is.....you've probably saved a bmp thinking it was a gif and didn't notice at the time.Next thing you know, AOL starts saving as ART and BMP files. It saves it to your latest cache. Try saving a gif after you've cleared your cache to make sure this worked. It always does for me.

You're a sweetheart. I think Colleen said she had tried that, too, but I may be wrong. Anyway, thank you sweetly for your solution.
