You can use your picture without any conversion too. Just edit the skin file and replace elephant.png with yourfile.jpg

If you really want to convert the file, simplest way would be to open it in Microsoft Paint and then choose save as and select PNG as file type.

Hi Desmond.

Download and try Irfanview. It is FREE, and will convert sizes/formats of images. It works very well.

The best way is with PhotoShop, first import the elephant.png just to see the size. Now that you know the size bring the other picture into PhotoShop and resize to the same as Elephant.png.
