    Walmart copied all of my photos in mpeg to my newbie surprise! Wanted to print some of my own pics, but I don't know how to switch to jpeg. If i want to add more photos to this slide show do I also need to switch to jpeg? This is a great sight for info, but I can't find guide solutions to this situation. So maybe I am such a newbie that I am asking the wrong question?

    if you look up the definition of MPEG in the Glossary tab above you will notice that MPEG is a movie file. Walmart can't copy your photos to movie files! It can only copy them as a picture file: JPEG or JPG for short, DNG, and other formats. Most notably are JPGs! Go back to Walmart and tell them your problem.... you want it in JPG format!

    I was just thinking...... did you give them a slide show? with audio to it? if so then Walmart can save to mpeg! what exactly did you do when you went to Walmart?
