I've noticed a similar thing on Flickr. Some people can make their images "un-saveable-to-your-hard-disk", you just end up with a little placeholder file. This seemed to be handled via CSS trickery, though. (I mean, the image is _on_ my screen, and presumably _in_ my cache, so I _already_ have it!) Firefox seems to have a "Use Style->None" option, that got around the trickery. (Other ideas would be screenshot, taking a photo of your monitor, copying the text by hand, etc. :^) ) -- -bill!
