Ahem...now that I have a mob of Mackers assembled here, could one of you answer a question for a neophyte?

I can post pix with no problem if I get one off of, say, FR by opening the pic on a new window and copying and pasting the URL. Works just fine.

But, how do I save the URL when I want to store pictures on my OSX?

Copy and paste it on the notes section of the comments box in the Get Info/General Information pulldown menu

The easiest way to save an image is click-and-drag it from Safari to the desktop.

To save the URL from Safari, hold down the "control" key and click on the image. (Or, if you have a two-button mouse, right-click on the image.) In the popup menu, choose "Open Image in New Window".

Then, from the new window, you can drag the web site icon (often a globe) to your desktop to save the URL - or you can bookmark it.

I use Camino as my primary browser(I'll give Safari a try when you can drag links onto the tabs). In Camino, if you right click on a image, you get a pulldown with "View Image". Using this option will display only the image with the appropriate URL in the same window.
