1940s boxer pics sought

[vistaman44]

Chris;

Got some good files from your site, already! Started through from the bottom and found Agostinho Guedes, but when I pulled it over, it came in bitmap format. OK so far, but when I try to pull it into Photoshop to decrease the file size, it says the format is unrecognizable and won't let me open it. Any ideas?

[CONN CHRIS]

Hmm. I uploaded them as jpg files but I see what you mean about the download wanting to assign a bmp extension. I have no idea what to do about that. It is already sized at 140 x 140 pixels so that part should be fine. I tried loading a few files from there into my game folder, if you change the extension to jpg and ignore the dire warnings from Microsoft about doing so it works just fine.

Can anyone shed some light on this for a few of us tech-dummies?

Christopher

By the way, if anyone does poke around there and sees spelling errors or misplaced IDs, I would greatly appreciate being informed. I have put thousands of files up there and surly made some mistakes.

You surely made mistakes, as we all do, so don't be surly about it! LOL!

I have Artie Towne and Antonio Fernandez somwhere. I will find them and check the size etc. before uploading.

Speaking of which, the allen Matthews file is the wrong size, but I'm sure you can all resize it.
