GIF Files?

[Jay]

What to do to save, view and print GIF files?
Why is it that I can save, view and print some of the GIF files and not all?
I did go to the folder options and selected the Microsoft Picture Manager to
open all GIF files and I am still not able to view or print some of them??

Computer version I am using:Microsoft Windows XP Version 2000

Most of the ones I cannot access or print are the ones I saved with the
(trans.gif) What is trans.gif?
I saved these files/images from a web site I frequently visit. I like to
save them to Microsoft Picture Manager because I can edit the image to my
liking.
I was told that I need to download the image first. I am not computer
litterate and hesitant to try something without proper directions...
I also tried the 'print to file', so I wouldn't have to do the 'print to
screen' however, I can't access or view the images which are saved with the
'print to file'(*.prn) ext.

Hi Jay,

The Trans.gif may be a one pixel square clear spacer file that is used in some web pages to set a fixed (transparent) spacing
interval. Basically there is nothing in it to be viewed.
