Hi all! I want to participate in the icon challenge. I have a great idea, but I'm having a problem with paint (the only image program I have, and the only one I can afford right now). Whenever I make an icon and save it, it looks fine. But if I re-open it to view it or edit it, it looks all messed up! The picture and the text are all blurry! Help me, I've made about 8 and had to delete them all!

Well that tends to happen to me if I save them as .jpg - it works if you save them as 24 bitmaps. If you have Windows XP - you may have Microsoft Office Picture Manager. Right click on you pictures in like My Documents or whatever and select "Open With" and see if it's there.
If so, then you can export them and change them to .jpgs and it works well. It's also a really good program for resizing and croping. I actually find it resizes pictures more clearly than PSP. Haha

You could download GIMP and use that instead of paint, it's like photoshop but free.
