# Welcome!
I'm not sure if it's downloaded properly on my computer, but looks like a credible paintmash! A suggestion would be to convert it to a jpeg file format when saving, by selecting it as the file type rather than bmp.

Shop a kitten, and become one with the fluff!

# i'm afraid .BMPs are frowned upon
as they a flipping enormous. You'd do best to make that a link for now... especially as it seems to be corrupted. Then re upload a jpeg or gif or even a png as they will be about 1/10th the size :)
