So it does - this is brilliant :-)) A slightly more long-winded way is to click menu over the image on the page then follow Object Object Save and save it! If I had the programming skills I would write a routine to this automatically. Someone already has! *Incidentally what a superb site. Indeed. Setting up Organizer to open APOD is great too: Create a task alarm with URIdispatch http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ in the Message section. I'll investigate - thanks again for your quick response Tim. -- Regards Richard

So it does - this is brilliant :-)) Ctrl+Select dragging saves it in original format (JPEG in this case). Ctrl+Adjust dragging automatically converts it to Sprite format, which may be more use if you're using the image as a backdrop (since sprites redraw faster).
