Note: You need a good photo program to convert your picture to JPEG format:
Your images must be in the JPEG format. (JPEG files usually end with ".jpeg" or ".jpg" or ".jpe."). Each image must be smaller than 5MB. There is more information at 'Personal Photo Guidelines' > http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/360/gui...
--------
Use a photo editing program, open photo and save out as jpg.
*IrfanView (free)
IrfanView 3.99 download from Cnet

*Google Picasa (free)

*Adobe Photoshop:

I just went to your link and I just right clicked on the picture and clicked the "save picture as" option. It saved it into "my pictures" for me. But you can specify anywhere else you want to save it into.
