If you copied and pasted it and then saved it it will have been saved in the format of the program you pasted it into. For example, if you pasted it into a Word document it will have been saved as a .doc file and if you pasted it into Photoshop it will have saved as a .psd file.

It's much easier to right click on the original picture and elect to save it. If it is a jpeg it will save as a jpeg. Right click on any of the graphics on this page to see what options for saving are available and you will see you can only save them as gifs or bitmaps. Photographs and larger graphics are normally jpegs.

However, just because a picture is on the web doesn't mean that it isn't copyright.

It depends on what your default file saving format is.

- so if you have a default setting to go to that file it will be the file that appears....and if you don't have a default setting it will access the last file accessed?

- You will always have a default file saving setting. If you want, you can save the image on the desktop then go to save as then put .jpg at the end of the name of it.

- sorry i'm slow...let me explain...I saw a jpg with a name saved in a file such as "jpg003see my pic..." can this be a picture that was cut a pasted from a web site...or is this format more likely a jpg that was e-mailed to you and then saved?

- so most likely it is a jpg sent to the person because how would the file read if it was a picture that was cut and pasted?
