    Also we again need a saveable full size of your header picture.

    1. Odysseus, and all,

      I may have posted a reply to "saving an image" in the wrong place; scroll down to the Anonymous post and look at my brief (hardy-har-har) description on saving an image.

      Hope this helps!

      Regards,

  6. I use Firefox; don't know if this will work for other browsers -- but here's how to grab a copy of an image:

    1. Move your cursor over the image
    2. Right click on your mouse
    3. Hopefully, you will get a drop-down that will give you one of these choices:
    a. Save image
    b. View image
    c. View image info
    From there, you will be able to either 1) save a copy of the image, or 2) get to another prompt which will either get the save image prompt (view image) or get a "save as" prompt (view image info)
    4. If that doesn't work, do a right click, either on the image or elsewhere on the page, until you get the prompt "View page info" -- click on that
    5. Go to the second tab -- Media -- and click on that tab
    6. Usually you will get a box titled "address" and a bunch of URL options; click on each one until you see the image you want. When you see that image, click on the Save As button.
    7. Notes on #6:
    a) In the "type" column, you're looking for "Image"
    b) Most often, you are looking for an image with the extension .jpg, .png or .gif
    c) Generally, when I've looked for an image, it's been near the bottom of the list -- but not always...
    8. If none of this works, I recommend downloading a program called "Screen Grab Pro" -- it's freeware, so there's no cost. The only downside to this is when the image you're trying to grab is larger than your monitor's display; you either won't get all of the picture, or in zooming out to see the entire picture, the image you'll save is not as large as the original. BTW -- Screen Grab Pro is a great way to grab a picture of things you may want to have as future reference, such as conformation numbers on online purchases, online registration pages where you get your access codes, etc.

    I know this has been rather lengthy, but I hope you find it of use.

    Regards,
