Convert Pictures Into Cell Phone Format
Pictures may be easily converted into a format cell phones will recognize and display. JPEG (.jpg) files are compatible with the majority of cell phones. Converting other picture file types, such as Bitmaps (.bmp) or GIF (.gif) files is quick and easy with Microsoft Paint, a simple graphics editing program shipped with all Windows operating systems. With just a few quick steps, pictures may be converted to the JPEG format and displayed on a cell phone.
