I tried your file for you as well Irene. 

I renamed it and took the hyphen out.  Sometimes hyphens cause problems.
I have been doing genealogy research for myself & others for many years, just because I love it.

I moved to the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina in 2001 and just recently have got into photo restoration.

I am using an older version of Paintshop Pro XI on an even older pc :) & I want to thank in advance all who are helping me on this journey with my new hobby.

Anybody needing NC, VA research, just ask me!

That's odd - I always use hyphens in my file names - my usual format is <poster's name> - <original name> - <version descriptor>

Will test with something that I've posted before


Added - I've just re-checked and Irene's filename didn't have hyphens  Also, note Tommy's and Yvonne's file names

That worked so it's not hypens per se.

I think it's something to do with how the file was saved. When I try to open the file that I've saved to Desktop in PS it gives the attached message.  It does open in Irfanview though  :-\

Irene's file re-saved as jpg in Irfanview also attached.

Sorry to add to your thread gpixie for this

Irene - I  will leave this file up until you've seen it and then will delete!
