I'm trying to upload a picture to my website, but the format is wrong?

Question

How do I change the format from b.m.p. to Jpeg ? I have Zoom Browser and Dell picture Studio. What do I do ?

Answer 1

You can even do this in Windows paint program. Open the BMP file in your chosen photo editing software. Then just hit "Save As" and set the extension (by way of the drop-down box) to JPEG or JPG. Some "bigger" photo editing packages may want you to "Export" to this format. Both of these options are available through the FILE button at the top left corner of the application window.

Answer 2

You should see the FILE TYPE selection when you use SAVE AS. Just pick JPG from the list.

I believe that Dell picture studio should do the trick for you.

I use and prefer Paint Shop Pro. It is ideal for web work, and much cheaper than Photoshop, which other people BRAG about.

Answer 3

assumuing your running in a windows (not a mac or something) open up the folder with the file, right chick on the file, go over to "open with" and click on paint. in paint, go to save as, and select the JPEG format. click ok, and your done! make sure you now try to upload the right one...


also if you dont like the way the .jpg file turned out, you can try .gif

Answer 4

Try the simple Paint, which comes with Windows.
Open the file with Paint, and click on Save As in the File menu.
Change the format to jpg. Simple!

Answer 5

Open it in a picture editor and go to File, then to Save As. Type in the filename, followed by .jpg, or just the filename, and select jpeg image from teh dropdown menu below that.

Answer 6

it could be that the site doesn't accept pictures directly from your computer or something. maybe you could put it in a photos site thing, like photobucket or imageshack. upload it from there and then get the link from the picture. then try and put it up. hope i answered your question correctly ^^;;

Answer 7

open the picture [in a photo editor] and save the type as jpeg. it should say it under where you type the file name when you are saving it

Answer 8

the easiest way is to change the extension manually. just right click on the picture, go to rename. if you picture was named pic.bmp...change it to read picture.jpg. if you can't see the .bmp at the end of the picture and it changes your picture name to picture.jpg.bmp then you'll have to go to tools>folder options click on the "view" tab and uncheck the box that says hide extensions for known file types. then you're in business. that's it.

Answer 9

Answer 10

There's a very cool (& Free!) program called "Irfanview" that will reformat any graphic to what you want. I've never seen "b.m.p." though---you could rename it to jpeg & see what it does (eg: "tree.bmp" change to "tree.jpeg")
