Can these images be copied?

I might need a couple.

[no one in particular]

Yah. And here's one such way:

1) Make sure the particular image you want is on the screen. Press "Ctrl+Prnt Scrn" on your keyboard.

2) Open Paint.

3) Paste.

4) Use the crop tool to remove everything around the desired image.

5) File, Save As...

Damn, I love this place. It's like living in Iraq and needing to know how to make a bomb. Just ask.

Thanks.

Couldn't see the site from work but wondering if this (http://download.coh.co.kr/Client/CCC_Setup.exe ) Firefox extension would help?

<snip> ...annoying technique that can be found on more and more pages. That is to hide images behind a transparent gif to protect them against being saved.

Dude, it's in some sort of alien language.

You can also simply pull the image directly from your Internet temp folder, if you know where to look. No matter what type of protection mechanisms they come up with, the simple fact is that if the image displays in your web browser, you have already downloaded a copy to your computer. I've done this on a few pics, including one (protected by some simple diable right-clicking code) that I was told I could never save.

the original web site uses shockwave, you'll get a temp copy of the shockwave file but images will still be encoded in the file. To get static images out print-scrn (or Grab on the Mac) is still probably the easiest way.

Ah, didn't know it was shockwave :)

That does change it a bit.

Well, seems this question has already been answered with everything I would have said, save the bomb building bit.

I can only add that basically the image is just in such a different format in the shockwave player that only the shockwave player itself knows what it is, and the video cache when the screen flip happens.

If you really wanted all the images in that file, you'd need to get the source file they used to create it. But, print screen is the next best thing. The real bugger is getting an animation from an image. That requires stepping through it frame by frame, which can be done by right clicking and selecting "forward" over and over again, I believe.

Hmm - good point. But any decent picture viewer *cough (http://www.irfanview.com/)* will have an easily controllable slideshow action, just make sure the files are numbered right and you're away :)

[homer]

Well how about two halves of plutonium about the size of a melon which when brought together go bang .

[Mercifull]

Priont screen is probs the only way to get those images. Unless you have director to import the shockwave
