I'm using Picture Manager and compressed my files to send them via email.
How do I "decompress" them to get them back to the original state?

Once you've compressed a picture and saved it as the same name as the
original, you can't decompress it. Kind of like getting your bike run over
by a steam roller.

Love your analogy, Jo-Ann!

A big point is that if one compresses or re-sizes a picture file, one should
always retain the original format.
