Why does the file download as an RAR file, that has to be extracted. Downloading a JPG file would be easier. Thanks, Phil.
quite simply its beacuse rar files allow files to be compressed and downloaded quicker. It harks back to slow internet connections, when viewing a full size dvd cover would take an age. It also allows us to track account use, its nbot something thats going to change. Personally I dont see the problem, there are a multitue of free programs for extracting rar files.
one last thing, we stopped accepting zips a long times agao, its all rars now
