Picture Save Issue

[Ringas]

Hi folks. I am having a problem saving pictures from this forum. When I right-click onto a picture to use the Save As feature I get a dialog box which saves the picture with an extension of "asp" but actually it doesn't save it at all. Is there anyway to save the picture with its default extension?

 

Thanks in advance, Tassos Ringas

instead as right click save as, do right click copy. then paste the buffer into photoshop and save from there.

Thank you. It works!!! But it's not very convinient. What is this asp extension and would it be that difficult to have normal picture behaviour?

Use 'save target as' instead of 'save as'

You can get programs that do this, and in my opinion, are easily worth the $30 bucks or so. Go to www.cnet.com > downloads and search for screen shots (or something like that). You can save in many formats at a higher res than if you just 'print screen'.

What the heck...

You probablly somtime in the life of your windows installation installed any download managment program which takes over this save as, save target as... and so on. I mean reget, getright gozilla ... and others.

Anyway, Windows is a 'drag and drop'... right?

Left click on the image you see in the browser, and hold, drag over to the desktop, and release mouse button there. In other words - drag the image to your desktop, or any desired folder.

Simple as that.

I think the .asp extension is part of Jeff's anti-leaching (whatsit thingamajig?) code which is part of the upload utility.
