Lets just experiment. Go to
www.google.com and choose the More..........
link that you see above/left of the search box. When the list of programs
shows, choose Picasa. Download this free program and install it. It will
collect all photos on your computer and copy them to its file system,
leaving the original where it was. Now when you have Picasa up and running
and can see those pic's of yours click to open just one. Read below what
format it is.
