It is even worse than this! It also converts GIF to jpg - and note that it also changes the file name in the coding as well as the file. I haven't found any way of changing them back other than manually and this I have to go with several as I make use of transparency.
Good luck with the bug report. I haven't submitted one previously but have commented on this behaviour on LUG.

Usually, behaviour that is intentionally added to software is not considered a bug; rather, some may object to it as a poor design decision. My guess is that this was done for compatibility purposes. Many machines are not configured properly to display PNG images in their web browsers, while JPG images are universally supported out-of-the-box. _________________________________________________________________ Get Hotmail on your mobile, text MSN to 63463! http://mobile.uk.msn.com/pc/mail.aspx Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages: http://www.mail-archive.com/legacyusergroup@legacyfamilytree.com/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
