hi i wanted to compress some really sentimental pictures to send to my email from my memory card. Being on my memory card i thought they would be safe. My brother compressed the files and they have come up with symbols and the files wont open. What has happened please dont tell me iv lost my pictures!

No, but your brother might have. When your brother compressed them did he make a .rar or .zip file? I'm guessing he deleted the original files when he did this? Try and give as much info as you can and we might be able to tell you what happened, if not how to fix it.
