Does anyone have:

A few days ago I purchased Print Shop Deluxe. It has some nice features for the price.

Here's my problem: I bring in a photo, crop it,twig it whatever, even frame it if I want; but I can't get it uploaded to the site.

Anyone using it who can give me a crash course in terms a kid would understand. Technology is not one of my better things. Thanks

sometimes I have to save it as a jpg then re-open it in a different program and re-save it as a jpg then you know if it is going to work....good luck

Ugh! The problem with print shop is that you can only open a file in their program. If you have XP, Bob, when you save the photo use the drop down menu by "save" and choose jpg. Now open the photo in any other program you have been using and save it again - or - go on the internet and download "irfanview". It's a free file changing program.

You'll still have to use the XP drop down menu to change to jpg when the image leaves Print Shop.

Thanks guys! It sounds easy to most people I'm sure; but I'll try to follow your directions like a kid in his first cooking class.

Wish I were just a bit technical. I am getting envious of all the really smart people on this site. And myGrand Kids, they just run rings around me.

Hey Bob...send me an image and I will try to find another program that will re-open it and save it as a jpg if you want

Pete, if you find an easy way to convert the files please let me know. I only use Print Shop for cards, banners, etc, for that reason. Every file is associated only with that program. I've been able to change the files by either the methods described above or by printing the file and rescanning it. Thanks.

Hi Bob, I do not have the program that you purchased. Howeveer I have found that after I crop my photograph, and get it right, I then save it to my desktop, and then to my floppy or CD, Might work for you.Angus

Thank you for all the feedback. I will try each of them. If I can't get it, will send to you Pete.
