[G4] OS X (10.3.9) Question...

[Richard Northouse]

Hi,

I run into the same problem frequently. When I try to read the same file
with my PC (windoze), I get the same results. Little squares that seem to do
nothing expect cause frustration!

I have had the same problem, but it appears to me to be caused by the  
original sender (who is usually using a PC WhineDoze box) when they  
use a proprietary format with a windows only graphic file. As long as  
the image is sent as a JPEG format, it appears without any problem on  
the page for me. When it is sent as a bitmap image, I get problems.

I say it is a PC issue and they should fix it in the next version of  
Vista which is expected to ship sometime in the next two years.
