All pics are saved as bitmaps, why?
 
Hi all, I've had this problem before but I can't remember how to fix it. Whenever I try to save a pic, I can only save it as a bitmap instead of a jpg. Any ideas? XP Pro, sp2. Thanks for any help.

Seems like the clearing of your Internet cache and all other related actions fixes it if I remember correctly. Of course, I may not be remembering correctly, but I'm about 90% sure!

I doubt this is the reason, but I had a similar problem if I changed a color image to B&W instead of desaturating it.

Its a bug in IE so when the internet cache becomes full it will only save things as .bmp
