I'm relatively new to photoshop (I have 7.0), but trying to learn...

anyway, I've been downloading brushes and all that jazz, and today I tried to download a pack of gradients. Trouble is, they're saved as .jpg image files, when the Photoshop program will only open them as .grd

How do I convert these? Or, can somebody link me to a tutorial that can show me?

When posting a picture of yourself (ie, for Facebook, message boards, yahoo! profile, etc), which kind of picture is better? A 'normal' pose [like, cropped from a regular picture], or a 'myspace' style picture? [moody expression, angeled camera, etc.]

Whenever I sign in to get to the chatrooms, I only get as far as it loading [with the blue/white bar] when the window freezes, and automatically closes out.

I have the most recent version of Flash, so it's not that.

If you could tell me how to fix it, too, that'd be wonderful.

the quote, "your reject all-American," is from the Nimrod album [1997].

I've tried google and all that jazz, but I haven't found a reliable enough source.
