You forgot to tell us what happens when you try to extract the files. Such
as if there is an error message, exactly what it says. Or even "nothing
happens at all".

In the short term, it sounds to me like your uncle doesn't know how to
create a zipped archive and has done something wonky. Ask him to get help
making a zipped archive and resend the pictures or suggest that posting
them to an online web album (Google Web Album, Flickr) would be an even
better alternative.
