    Default avatar help

    okay so i found this cool avatar adn want to use it but
    i found it at work so saved it and emailed it to home
    then when i try to dl and save it, it only lets me save it as a bmp
    running windows xp pro and i thought i was smarter than this, when i jsut straight dl it from hotmail it opens up a web browser and show the gif.
    and saving it as bmp and changing file extension is not working either.
    any ideas i can try when i get back home ?
    thanks everybody.

    You should be able to open it under 'MS Paint' (or another Photo Editor) and then do a 'Save As' to change the file extension to a JPG.
