uuuhm.... are you changing the NAME or are you CONVERTING the pic?

Because changing the name will only change the name... NOT the "compression" technic of the picture

Right on.

Now, if you were just changing the name of the file extension and not converting it, a simple solution would be to just drag the file into Microsoft Paint or it's equivilant, then Save As a .png file (or whichever you please). Of course, you could get a file converting program, but I find that the Paint process to be more newbie friendly.

Here is a free image manipulation program. Maybe try it instead.

Gimp is a horrid program. This is a million times better, also free:

GIMP is an awsome program if you need to do the same things you can do with PS without the price tag.

But, ya its a bit much just to do image type conversions.
