The size of the file is a function of what has been originally uploaded.
ebay specifies a minimum long side of 500 pixels and the recommended max
is 1600. I have yet to run into one that was locked that was on the ebay
site. I suspect some of the off site hosts do allow picture locking.
Anything that is displayed on your screen can be captured. It also looks
like ebay plays with the byte density as the 1600X1200 size comes up as
~700kB yet that is usually a 2 meg camera size image.

Rich,Certain files are right-click disabled, so this works no matter what.
Also, you need to look at the image to determine whether you are getting the
largest size file, as eBay has numerous size files posted - thumbnail, low,
medium and high quality .jpg images. This method is to obtain the ultimate
quality image - if you don't need that, then whatever you get with a right
click is OK... with no secret handshakes or chicken entrail readings.

For some reason I find that a right click and "save image as" does
collect the original with no secret handshakes or reading of chicken
entrails.

Ever wish you could save high quality eBay scans from various listings? For example
look at this current listing:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1902-Edison-Standard-Cylinder-Phonograph-w-Original-Blue-Flower-Horn-Gorgeous-/190758684576?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c6a1a87a0
Would you like to be able to save the image that you see when you use the zoom
tool to view the closeups? Email me at:vinyl(dot)visions(at)live(dot)com and I
will email back a PDF explaining how you can do it. Curt
