saving attached images


Recommended Posts

When I want to save an image such as the one posted here how can I get Firefox to use the proper image name and extension instead of "index.php"?

I would use Down Them All! for the images if Firefox can't snatch them correctly. Yeah, it seems kinda weird that it can't be downloaded from the new window.

Okay, this is either a security measure or bug in IPB, but I found away around it.

Click on the attachment, and it opens up in a new window. (this is where you can save index.php)

right click and go to properties, and "Copy image location"

Open up a new tab, and paste the URL, and save the image :)

Thank you, Rube Goldberg for the suggestion. Or he can't just save it with one click using DownThemAll. That just seems easier to me.

It's actually easier to just drag the image out of the browser.
