I've saved hundreds of pictures from this board because I liked them so much and wanted to make something similar. I just save them in a folder until I want to make one, then just open it and print. No problems.

I just right click on the picture and send it to my pictures and then when I am done I go into my pictures and name the folder with whose ever quilt it was.

I too have a folder full of inspiration from here. With a Mac you do command shift 4 and then drag the cursor over the image. You hear the sound of a camera shutter. I do that with recipes on blogs too.

I do the same thing and it works. Sometimes, I get a black dot the first time I copy but I go back and try it again and I get the image. I don't know how to print your favorites, sorry.

I couldn't find a way to print the Favorites list but, if you have Internet Explorer, you can export them to a file.
Click on the favorites tab and then click on the small pointer next to the "Add to favorites" tab. Then follow the directions to export the list to a file. I guess you could then open that list and print it but I'm not sure. Just remembered, the list is an htm file that lists names of the links to the websites not the links themselves which you would need to reconstruct the list if you needed. But I'm assuming Internet Explorer stores this list so if you lost your computer you could get the list back.
Strange - I just went through the steps to do this and when I went to my documents to find the file, I found I had done these steps on this date exactly a year ago.
