Does anyone know how I can save an image from a website if the image has a rollover version? Meaning, I need the image that you see on the site, but when I put the mouse on it to rightclicksave, it switches to a different image, so that's the only one that I can save. I can't seem to view source, either.

Print screen, copy and paste to graphics program, crop, save, voila.

Well, look at that - I learn something new every day.

Glad to be of service :)

Print Screen?

[listersgirl]

Thank you! Worked perfectly.

For future reference (because I'm such a geek) — look at the source code, find the URL for the non-rollover image, and copy/paste it into your browser. (If a relative URL is given, you'll have to reconstruct the full one, naturally...)

Then proceed as per usual.

(Or simply turn off JavaScript for a few minutes... :)

Oh, I never thought of the JavaScript thing. I tried to do the first one, but it wouldn't let me see the source code, no matter where I was on the page. I hate that!

There are always ways around that. It can be difficult, but it can be done.

(That's why I'm happy I have a Linux emulator on my PC — "wget" is an invaluable tool...)
