Liljimmycrank Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 anyone else having trouble copying scans off ebay? Right click ansd save target as doesn't seem to exist much now Try 'save picture as' Chalky, should work every time. Allows you to save as J-peg

Liljimmycrank Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 some I can save target/picture as but many I can't anymore Using firefox btw. That could be the problem - try using internet explorer and save one of the pics you couldnt save using firefox, that way you'll know if its your web browser. If not, im stumpped mate, sorry
Benji Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I recently noticed that too. Tried Firefox and IE, couldn't save pictures using both. There's a work around using the source code of the auction page but rather inconvenient. Would like to know why Ebay made this, I mean it's not that somebody's auctioning rare .jpegs is it? Ebay manages to introduce an new annoyance almost every week, don't they?

Why ebay keep changing things is an enigma known only to them I reckon. They will eventually kill things and turn success into a failure, as far as we're concerned. If it ain't broke don't try to fix it. (Surely they must have heard of this sound advise) Edited August 14, 2009 by 45cellar

Strange - Just tried with both IE / FF with no problems - FF is rightclick "save image as" , and IE is rightclick "save picture as" .. maybe it is a system that only effect some random pages , like the "new view" was (still is) Anybody got a link to one NOT working ?? Cheers Mick
Benji Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 .... , like the "new view" was (still is) ... Just played around a bit, using the old and new views on the very same auction. You can save/download pic's on the old view but no longer on the new view.
