I'm totally stumped by why it works and why it doesn't. My test was unsuccessful. Like many, I could unzip the zip file, see all my stuff, but it would not copy and paste or load into PSE or CS2.... What did you do, Jane and Kim? So may people are complaining...and I'm stumped.
I couldn't get it using whatever is on my computer that works with everything else, so I unzipped it using Unzip Them All and it worked and the files open and load fine.
What did you do to zip them that you were testing?

Judy, UnzipThemAll is a program that not only unzips .zip files but it also unzips other types of compressed file such as .rar and .ace. The .rar is a popular compression file on a lot of scrapping sites.
Kim, I used WinZip to zip them, and WinZip to try the extraction....also tried the right click method and choose "Open with Compressed (zipped) Folders". I will try that other program as well.
This is only a guess but I am thinking that because the compressed file was named Mommy and Me Photography Holiday Cards and the actual file compressed was named Mommy & Me Holiday Cards that WinZip is not associating the files to match and that is why the message I got said File skipped unknown compression method. Instead of changing the name the way you did, just click on the main file go to File> Send To> Compressed (zipped) folder. Here it is done that way from the file I unzipped using UnzipThemAll. I tested it and it works.
Ok, it is still a large file even zipped so it is taking awhile to upload to SendSpace. I will post it as soon as it is done.
