You need to have programs that can open files in .Gif , .JPEG , etc. Right now, it sounds like you don't have any programs that can open .JPEG and .GIF files, along with some others..... What operating system are you using?

Hmm, even MS Paint can handle GIF's (albeit at a very basic level). What OS are you using? What program does this happen in?
