this could have been resolved much sooner if ...   ::)
Can you post a specific page and describe a specfic image and what browser you used so that we can try saving it?

I get more or less the same results, i don't assign the photos, they just go to "my pictures" by default.

I guess i'm not going to find out why i get the files now and again instead of photos.

I'll keep your name a secret  ;D

Sounds like you might be right clicking on dynamically created thumbnails, and this might be why you get the results you have described. Maybe you need to give us much more information... e.g. a link to a page where you get the problem occurring, which browser you are using etc etc.

I have found out what is going wrong.

When i right click and save as they download ok.

What i have been doing in file name is adding the web url so that i can give credit for the photo, so that must change the photo to a file, but it only happens 50% of the time.

So i'll add the web url after downloading from now on.

So everyone one has learnt a little today from this thread  ;D
