Problem Getting Photos to Work

[Tater]

I am still unable to see the photos that I believe I have downloaded into the Photos folder. I have downloaded the MLB High Res Photos folder file. When I right click on the file I get a series of options none saying to extract. With that being the case I right click and click on Send to Compressed Zip folder. It shows it compressing for about 10 seconds. I then right click on the zipped folder, click on Extract All and appear to extract the pictures into the photo folder. I then restart the game and after making sure that under "Picture search mode" I have selected "Search for photos first" I click on Continue Game. I then click on a couple of different players and nothing -- no photos.

I'm sure I'm doing or not doing something that is causing me to not be able to see the photos. Any assistance to get me straightened out after a couple of hours of trying to get this working properly myself would be greatly appreciated.

I've never heard of anyone extracting files the way you did.
Can you open any of the pics in paint or any other graphics program?
Check you saved game's news\html\images\person_pictures and profile_pictures folders and see if there are any pics in them. If so delete them and restart ootp and your pics will show.
If not, then most likely they got corrupted when you re-compressed them.
I'd install 7zip..it's free, and use that to extract the photos.

Thanks Bigrod. Once I downloaded 7Zip program and extracted the file with it, the photos showed up.

Thanks again for your help.
