Default Someone asked how to save posts with pictures

I've been wanting to post about this and since someone in one of the threads asked about it today, I guess now is the time. They wanted to save the whole post, text and pic. You can always copy and paste into a Word document but there's a better way....IF you use Firefox. There's an add-on called Abduction that lets you highlight what you want to save and then save it on your computer. It saves as a .png but you can then open it in the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (same thing you open jpgs in) and save it as a jpg and print it out if and when you want to. The home site is:

There's probably something similar for IE but I don't use it so can't help there. I really like this one and use it every day!

Print Friendly is another tool I love. Sally....posted it on Treadleon awhile back and I think she may have learned about it here...not sure tho. site is:

You can add a button/link to your browser....IE and FF and when you want to save a web page, just click on the link and it creates a pdf to download. You can delete parts of the page you don't want. You'll notice this on a lot of web pages, e.g. some blogs etc......even my bank uses it!
