Changing A Bitmap Pic To JPEG

Does anyone know how to do this? I recieved pics of my new niece that I would like to put onto shutterfly but they are in Bitmap not JPEG. Can anyone help?

you need a program like photoshop or paint and open it and save it as jpeg.

I have paint but I don't know what to do.

go to open, once you do it click save as and there many options and pick jpeg. I hope that helps.

Your PC should automatically open the photo is some editing program. Try to just double click on the photo. Once open, go to save as and change the format, like you would in word. Be sure to name it something else, to avoid confusion when uploading.

Shuterfly might also support .Tiff files too. Not positive.

This does not work. The pics are part of the email.

No, they only support jpeg files.

If you are not busy, could I send them to you and have you change them for me and then send them back. If you don't mind.

If you right-click on the picture in the e-mail, does it have a 'save picture as' option?

Yes it does but the jpeg format is not an option.

Darn! So much for my brilliant idea...

Sorry!

ETA: the other way I switch between formats is to insert the picture into a Power Point slide, then right-click on it and 'save as picture'. But it's a little cumbersome if you have a ton of pictures.

Does your computer have Photoeditor? You can change the format in there, too.

No it does not. Thanks though for that other idea.

I have a moment, FM them to me, and I'll send them back to you as .jpg.

I sent them to jantany26 to see if she can change them. If she can't, then I will email them to you to try.

Thanks everyone.
