How do I save images to My Favorites?
AddImageToFavs.jpg
Can I save images to my local computer?
Saving images from the gallery is not currently supported but generally the process involves right-clicking on the image and choosing "Save Image As...".  Be sure to rename the file to something sensible and with a .jpg extension. 

This process is not supported and is not possible for images that have been marked as "copy protected" by the artist.  We strongly encourage you to use the My Favorites functionality to save the image to your personal favorite folders on the site (see instruction in previous FAQ entry).
