Picture format?
When I try to select a .jpg file that I have copied from my PC to use as a picture on the Today screen, I am told the file cannot be loaded. What format should the picture be in?

its supposed to be in tsk format
you can download programs to make themes for the PDA like Microsoft Pocket PC Theme Generator (its free from microsoft site, yeh free MS stuff, go figure...), i myself use ThemeMakerPT its not free thou, but it has a 15 day trial i thinks

or there are many sites where you can download themes

I downloaded MS Theme Generator and tried to use the same .jpg file to create a theme. I was told there was an error generating the theme. I must be missing something - but what?

I think it more likely that the problem is I use Windows ME, and the download is for 98, 2000, and XP. Is there a version of Theme Generator for ME?

Here's another try. I was using the Quick Reply area instead of hitting the Post Reply button.

Lousy picture . I had to make it small enough to be accepted here, and this is how it came out.
