Actually, I don't know if you can animate a jpeg, but whatever.

I've seen lots of awesome animated graphics on the net, but haven't figured out how to get them onto my gorram computer! All I can do is put them on photobucket to make sure that I'll have access to it in case the source vanishes/dies/explodes/is eaten by Reavers. That's all well and good, but I'd like them to be saved to my hard drive.

Help?

A lot of em you can just right click the pic and select "save as" and choose where you want to put it on your hard drive. Is that what you meant?

If it is and you're getting a popup saying that you can't download the pics, try to save the picture with Mozilla Firefox, as it can bypass some of those blocks that Internet Explorer chooses not to.

Actually, when I first tried to save an animated image onto my computer, I did that - all it does is save the very first image, but not the rest... so all I get is an image, and no animation.

There's a thread for posting pics on fff.net somewhere. Anyway, copy the url from the image you want in photobucket, then paste it in your response and voila!

edit: I think to save to your hard drive, you have to save image as one by one.

Hah, I just realized that all you have to do is right click and save image - the problem was that I didn't know how to view them. Thanks though!
