Help a technophobe please

My grand-daughter has appeared in a photo on the web (as part of a crowd at a birthday party). It's a great pic and I wanted to save it, but when I right-click it comes up with a copyright notice and will not allow me to save it. Somebody told me to do a 'print screen'. I know how to do that and save it, but can the owner of the pic trace me?

Oh - and I forgot to add, nobody knows who took the picture, and I just want it for my photo album - I would never distibute it.

NOt sure this will work but worth a try. You could try saving the whole page to your desktop using the file menu at the top of your browser. It will make 2 icons appear on the dekstop, the HTML page and a drawer with all he components of the page, looki in the drawer and see if it has saved the pic you need.

Otherwise open your favorite paint package and also load up the page with your pic on it. With the pic on the screen press the PRTSCR key on the keyboard. Go to your paint package and on the edit menu use the paste option. this should paste the pic which you can crop so you just have the photo.

Thanks Furry - I'll try that

What's the address of the page and I'll do it.

No, the website won't be able to trace you if you do a print-screen.
