need some advice and words of wisdom

I'm trying desperately to make a party invitation for my twins 2nd birthday. All I want to do is make it in a word file with a jpg picture on it of mickey and minnie..preferably from the MM clubhouse phase of his life. Can anyone direct me to some websites where I can find jpg images of mickey and minnie? Thank you so much!

If you go to google...in the upper left hand corner click on "images" - type in "mickey mouse" or to narrow it down "mickey mouse clubhouse". I just did this and there were 8,500 images to choose from. It will say on the image what type of file it is so that you can choose one you like that is a jpg file. You can also narrow it down to search for just large images and that might work best for you. Hope this helps.

Can I ask you this:
Is there any way to change a gif file to a jpg file? When I try to make the invitation in word, it wont support a gif file. most of the nicer images i find are gif files.
ugh.

If you have any kind of photo editing software for a digi camera there should be a way to change a gif to a JPEG, most scrapbook or print shop programs have some way of doing it. In most cases it is as easy hitting "save as" and there will be choices when the window opens under save as and you can pick which one to save it as. If you don't have any photo editing software of any kind you can go online and download a trial, in most cases it is good for 30 days. But if you have paint on your computer you can do it too , when you save the picture find the folder you have put it into and right click on it , it should give you options one of them should be "open with" pick paint and it will open it in paint, then click on "file" and hit "save as" there will be two drop downs one will be the"file name" drop down so you can change the name of the file and the one below it will be "save as type" and it will give you a choice of what to save it as. Make sure you remmeber where you saved it at (sometimes I forget to check and instead of saving stuff in my designs, or clipart folder I save it straight to "My Documents" ,and then it's real fun finding it if I forgot exactly what I named it as Hope this helps

Windows Picture & Fax viewer can change from gif to jpg. Just click on Save As and change the drop down box at the bottom to jpg.
