I don't have any experience with AOL, but it sounds like you need to change the file associations.

That's a proprietary AOL graphics format, changing associations won't do anything for you.

Solution for that problem!

Hi

When you right click on the picture you want to save, you'll get an option to "Save picture as..." . This option will automatically make the pic as an *.art file, but you will also have the option to save it as a *.bmp file if you use the pull-down menu and change the file-type.

Hope this helps!

-Patti
