Not exactly true. Older versions of MS Paint do not come with a preinstalled JPG filter, a necessary component for both reading and writing JPGs with image-editing software. If you have the MS Office Suite (I don’t, since I use Sun Microsystems StarOffice, which has all the same capabilities, plus an internet browser, built into one single program) or MS Word, you get a JPG filter, and I believe Paint is automatically flagged to be able to use it. If you don’t, but you do have any other program that comes with a JPG filter (LEGOcam software, for instance), you can flag Paint to have access to the JPG filter, but it involves having to hack your Registry file. Finally, if you don’t have any programs with JPG filters, you can download free filters and find the appropriate registry hacks (if necessary) here
