    Need software for saving web pictures

    then I think your best option is save the web as a html file. Or right click on the picture(s) you want and do a save as or save picture and send it/them to the folder of your choice. Cnet.com may have a free to try or freeware software, I just know adobe does it the best when it come to saving the whole web page as a pdf for later viewing .



    ^thanks lightbulbie forgot about chrome lol

    good.
