Saving a picture

[Guest]

I believe Windows allows the user to choose type of format to save pictures,
but now it only allows me to save by bitmap, how can I change it?

Currently using:
Picasa 2
ACDSee 6
Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 Starter Edition

WinXP Pro
Version 2002 SP1

Are you using 'File - Save As' ?
Try opening picture in Paintbrush and then chose File, Save As ....

Yes, I usually use save as and windows saves it as jpg, iso now only bitmap.
