Image Viewer complains about malformed jpg file, yet Gimp and Firefox display the file just fine.

Screen shot attached.
Summary says it all, I think.

Image viewer is doing a test that other programs are not.

Either they are all wrong or the test is unneeded in image viewer.

I have hundreds so.

I think I see the issue now, but maybe you know the solution.

They are created by writing a Curl output to disk, so I suppose I can
fix my issue by changing the ending to something else if I knew what
they were.

Do you know what they are?

I fixed my problem.
You can close this Bug report if you wish.

They appear to be PNGs not JPGs.
Just change the name and viewer is happy.

Thank you for your help.

closing, there is already a bug open about eog getting confused if the filename doesn't match the real type
