Lesson 01 |
||||||||
| How to download a picture from the web: | ||||||||
| In this lesson, I will explain how to download a picture from the web to your hard drive. | ||||||||
|
||||||||
| 1. To download a picture to your hard drive, right click on the image, and select Save Picture As... | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| 2. Use the Save in: drop down menu to select the desired folder for the picture. For this lesson, we will direct it to a folder you will create on your desktop. When using the drop down menu, choose Desktop. | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
3. Create a new folder by clicking the
button. |
||||||||
| 4. Right click on the new folder, and select Rename. | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| 5. After giving the folder a name, click anywhere in the white area. | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
| 6. Select .bmp from the Save as type drop down menu. | ||||||||
| 7. Verify the File name ends with .bmp. If it doesn't, click the name box and type it in. | ||||||||
| 8. Click Save. | ||||||||
|
|
||||||||
|
It's always best to download pictures in a .bmp format (unless it the object is an animation), because downloaded .jpg and .gif files are often unreliable. |
