Need Graphics file help?
What program creates a .ai graphics file? I'm creating a program for Crow Mountain Hill Climb and a sponsor sent me these files which I can't open with Photoshop or Macromedia (Adobe) Fireworks/Freehand. Any help would be appreciated.

Crickey. You'd think I could convert it with Photoshop. Can anyone convert it for me?

When I try to open it, here is what I get.

Please reopen and save this file to Illustrator 8 before conversion

I've got Illy 10, I wonder if they're using an older version that doesn't like
your current version of PS?

I never have figured out how to use Illy, but if no one else can can get it open, I can make a try.
I currently use Expression, but it can only open .psd (PS) and not .ai (Illy) files.
