Kopete - Jpg problem... Received the files, but they are grey when opening them!


Yeah I got this weird problem, that when I receive a jpg over Kopete, the file exists on my computer, but when I click to open it, its all grey... no border or anything. I use Suse 10.1 and kopete 11 ... I know theres a new version out, but I doubt this is the problem.

All the users that are sending me these files are under windows... But its not supposed to change anything right?

Any ideas?

Thanks!

It is probably due to an incorrect encoding scheme being used to transmit the .jpg files. See what happens when you try to send someone else a jpg. If you are talking to strangers that may be the problem.
