JPG or JPEG extension should not make a a diffrence in the actual
quality of the picture, if the file is saved in the the same
resolution/quality. It is still the same JPEG file.
If the problem is the quality of the Windows explorer preview, it may
due to different image "pre-viewer" assiated with those file extensons
(.JPEG and .jpg).
Suggestion. Save the file as temp1.jpeg then make a copy of it in
windows and remane as temp2.jpg and compare the quality of the preview.
If it is different, then you got a confirmation of the reason.

When I save PSP files as a .jpeg, in the left preview screen on My

However, when the *same* photo is saved as .jpg - they are blurry in My
Documents.
