 When I ...[is it down load, or up load?]...animations into photobucket if its bmp it won't transfer to a site forum but it works okay with gifs. Can anyone tell me why and is there anything I can do about it thanks Val.

No idea Val.  My pictures are all JPEG extensions and I do not have a problem downloading to photobucket.

When you download your photos onto your hard drive, I wonder whether maybe you should have to name them Mypicture.JPEG.  Not sure  ???  Hopefully someone else can help you.
 :D

Open up the pic in your editor and selelct from 'file'...save as...then save it as a Jpeg.

Hi Marianne and Ken. I've also found out that bmp are the largest files and photobucket has a 250kb restriction, so it stops the animation when its reduced. think I'll stick to gif and jpg, or small animations. Thanks again for your help.
