My DS is pictured on a website news page, how can I copy it before it disappears?
Right click on the picture and select 'Save Image As' (or something similar, depending on your browser).

mrV beat me.
Save it to somewhere in my pictures folder or whatever you wish, from the drop-down on the location bar.
BTW, bookmark the page as well and then hopefully it won't disappear and you'll be able to get at the page for as long as you wish!!
That's the most interesting request I have had today

please help, he wont be in the news for much longer
Oh it's a flash image - they do that to stop copying. Are you OK with a screen grab? I'll do it for you.

got the pic, but see what you mean blardy adobe flash player isn't wanting to let us in. Gits. Have you done 'save page as...' for now - you have to click over at the far left or right so that you are only clicking on the background, before it will let you do it.
Have tried being mega-geek and went into the menu's got all the logos and images and everything, but it just gave me little blank grey boxes for the pics. Will bookmark it for morning and get mrWitch on it
as he is the Ultimate Geek round these parts.
Catch you tomorrow unless i figure somethin out in the next 10 mins or so

oooh MrV is back.
Nice one.
(smug geek) 
Hmm, something strange on my site. You should be able to get it here by right-clicking the image, but I seem to have something wrong with my MIME types (oops, ultra-geeky moment, sorry).
So in the meantime, use this link instead - I will remove that when I have the first one working though.

aww HS, he is such a cutie.
obv no idea he's got sen either. see from the last post that it makes it even more important.
Mr V has linked to it, did you get the pic last night?
hornswoggle I am sorry that you found the banter between myself and gigglewitch offensive, and that you have not been able to get the picture following my unclear instructions.
If you click on this link the picture should be loaded in another window or tab in your browser. Right-click on the picture, and choose 'Save Picture As', then save it somewhere you can find it (it will probably default to 'My Pictures').
Note that that picture appears a bit 'pixellated' because that is how it was stored on the original site. If you don't have image editing software you can use, you might like to do the right-click and save thing with the picture that is displayed on this page instead.

so sorry I was such an arse last night
Thank you MrV and Giggle for your help
I got the pic and have sent it to everyone I know
My Ds is over the moon
I'm really really sorry for being rude and you are not geeks at all but salt of the earth fab people
Thank you
No problem, always a pleasure to help
. I'll take the pictures down from my site now for the sake of your privacy and the owner's copyright.

glad you got the pic in the end. Enjoy - and be proud of your little lad
