That happens fairly often to me using XP, Allyson. I've found it works best to just copy the image and paste it into Photoshop.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Allyson, I just dragged that image to my desktop, did CTRL + click, Open with Photoshop and I had no issues.

Your tag here.
Allyson, you might try this [link] to fix the file. I've never used it, so YMMV.
If not, Google says you're not alone [link] maybe you can find something helpful in there? Most of the fixes I saw involved opening the file in something besides Photoshop and resaving the file.
HTH.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
None of those things worked, but thanks for the help!
How infuriating. Bleh.

I'm thinking about getting a laptop. It would be used for surfing (ergo, wireless capability necessary), watching dvds while traveling, and writing. Not much else, I suspect.
I'd prefer something light, but stable/reliable is more important.
PC-compatible.
Anyone got any suggestions? Matt recommended MPC machines, but they're on the steep side, although he said they're very reliable. Any other thoughts?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Anyone here use Anapod with their iPod? Comments?

I've got two Toshiba Laptops that I like quite a bit.

I suggest looking for specific models rather than just brands. I received a Dell Latitude D610 from work a couple of months ago, and it's a great improvement on its predecessor - a Dell C640. It has built-in wireless networking (a/b/g) and a DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive. It uses a Pentium-M processor, so runs cool and has decent battery life.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I have a dell latitude d600 (at least that's what it says on the case) and it is SO fucking much better than my Compaq Presario that I'm about ready to weep openly.
It is light and the dvd drive can be removed to make it even lighter. I wish the DVD drive was a DVD rw, but that's my only complaint.
