    Every time i find a neat save and try to open it in tpt it loads for a bit then says "Error, cannot find save".

    Can you post the exact text which it says (To the exact letter) ?

    Maybe the save server is somehow being blocked? Can you open http://static.powdertoy.co.uk/477820.cps ?

    What was the message?

    As long as you have TPT installed (press ctrl+i), it should open a save inside TPT. If it doesn't, tell me exactly what it says

    It says, OPS1Q(some strange box)`V oh and i hooked up my keyboard (i have the android version) and it said I can't install it because i'm on the wrong platform.

    The file is a picture. A .cps file is a corel paint shop file. But if you open it in tpt it is a save with bombs.

    That's a TPT save, not a picture. .cps stands for "compressed powder save"

    It should open in TPT. But it doesn't matter here, I was just trying to determine if you could download it and it wasn't blocked or modified, which it seems it wasn't (OPS1 is the correct header)

    Does your issue happen every time? Can you view comments / thumbnails?
