    Ok, I solved the problem. This is sooooo stupid.....restart the computer...problem solved. I don't get it though, closing and re-opening the application didn't work.

    Thanks for the suggestions guys, it's nice to know that fellow polkies try and come to the rescue whenever possible.

    Is it possible some other program hijacked the .jpg extension? What does it say when you try to open the files? Can you save them to disk?

    EDIT : Glad it was fixed. Yay reboots.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    A friend who is an IT guy once told me that he resolved 90% of people's computer issues with a shutdown and restart. Probably an exaggeration, but... Glad it's working now!

    +1 - when in doubt reboot.
