    CMYK 8bits image fails to load

    In my program I have a picture box. I tried loading a jpg image into it and it crashes my program. The jpg was saved as CMYK/8bits.

    Actually I get an error message "invalid picture".

    Does anyone know if picture boxes only work with RGB values?

    VB's picturebox can only display of the following:

    Bitmap, icon, metafile, GIF, JPEG

    so if your image doesn't fall into this category then it will not be loaded and there is no way arround it.
