try getty images, you'll probably find what you want there - its a free site - just google it
Clicking and dragging the image to the "Address Bar" sometimes works. :)

you could also press the 'print screen' key on your keyboard which will print out the whole screen. you can then just scan it back in.


you may get a kind of security watermark on the image though

And http://www.justourpictures.com/roses/imgs/botz aris.jpg is the link for the second one. I should imagine you can just change the final part of that URL to whatever the name of the rosebush you wish to download is.

Hi Lia!


You could download a free 'capture' program and do it this way. Like this one. It's called CaptureWiz, or an even easier one is called Faststone Capture.

spacechimp and cetti, your methods worked great. thanks. you guys know so much, you all are so smart.
Yep, the only 2 ways I could get the image was too look at the source code of the page as I think spacechimp has done or to take a screen capture.

In fairness, if the site is going to this much effort to protect property of theirs that's copyrighted, I'd maybe respect that and not use it without their permission.
Maybe use something free instead like

The whole point is so that you don't copy the image and use it without their permission. This is how people make their living.
