Re: Some jpg's won't display

Hi Vic :-)

One more thing, and this is just a WAG, but, try reassociating them with the
program that you want to open them with, i.e., whatever program you use to
view/open the graphics with. It may be that they the 'type is unknown' may
be confusing something in the process. Maybe it's not really a
jpeg.

I have seen cases of this before, and it has happened to me a time or two,
and applying the right extension resolves the problem. Have you tried
downloading the file to your hard drive to see if it opens properly? If not,
what happens? Still blank? Get an error message? If so, what is the
message?

Hope this helps.
