For a cross-browser solution that you can immediately deploy today, you'll need to round-trip them to your server since there isn't a out-of-the-box solution for saving arbitrary bytes from within the player to their local filesystem. However, the soon-to-be-released Apollo is slated to support local filesystem access, so if you can wait for that and can deploy your application as a desktop application, that might suit you. Alternatively, for those browsers that support the data URI, you could use Javascript as a bridge and pass the bytes to your JPEG over to it in Base64-encoded format, and then create a data URI link from which the user can "download" the file off of the HTML page. Before you get overly excited about going down this route though, keep in mind that data URIs aren't supported by Internet Explorer, among other browsers.
