Yeah, that throws me off too.
We could really use some more info. OS, service packs, etc. would be helpful.

If you try to upload it to photobucket or some other image host, what does it say?

Maybe it's because MSPaint sets all PNG files to have capslock?
.png and .PNG are two different things to the interweb. |

Try renaming them to .bmp. It could be that Paint was just saving them named as .png when they were bmps on the imside.

Would it mess up the quality of the image?

No. Doing that would change nothing but the filename. It *might* fix your problem though. |

This is pretty strange. Have you tried opening the files with another image-viewing/editing program?
If you can't open them with another program either, your files might be corrupt. |

...and they didn't work there either?
I'm guessing they're corrupted then. Nothing you can do about it, I think. |

Try opening it with gimp. If not, then open it with Windows Picture and Fax viewer.
