How do you convert a jpg shortcut back a normal jpg file?

You can't. A shortcut file is a completely different file format that basically stores the location of where ever you shortcut-ted and then loads Windows Explorer or a program with that location. If the shortcut still works and you are on a windows computer you could try: 1. Right click on shortcut 2. Copy the Target 3. Go in to Windows Explorer (Start -> My Computer) 4. Paste the Target (may have to double click in W7) 5. Press enter. If the image comes up then delete the image name up until the nearest / or \ then press enter. 6. You'll find your JPG in this folder.
