In Firefox, go tools > Page Info > media which gives you the url of all the media on the page, plus a handy little "save as" button.

In last resort, never seen any that get round PrtScr, paste and cut yet.

Out of curiosity, I just right clicked, Copy Image, and then pasted it straight onto a MS Word page, full size. No problem.

Thanks for the responses guys.
The site I was accessing had disabled the Save As option and I thought it was due to the photo being displayed, as NickFitz has pointed out, via JavaScript.
Got round it by viewing the image properties which kindly included the URL of the image.

On the page you link to, they're doing it with JavaScript - if I right-click on the big image, I can save it with the usual menu.Originally posted by Clippy View PostNot sure how to explain this, but here goes.
On some websites, when you click an image to make it bigger, the image 'expands' in front of you. I think it is flash based.
How can you save a copy of the bigger image?
An example of what I mean can be seen by going to the below website, and clicking any of the images with a blue cross in th etop left hand corner.

On the URL you've given, it's just a matter of right-clicking on the enlarged image and selecting "Save Picture As..." (IE) or "Save Image As..." (Firefox). Just like you'd capture an image normally.
Other websites may use different methods that may not allow you to do this.
