[olpc-community-support] How do I save an image from the web?

[Paul Russell]

When I post to my blog I like to include a picture and I often choose a CC
or public domain image from the web. In order not to "steal bandwidth" I
save the image to my computer and then upload it to blogger.

Is there a way to save an image from a web page onto the XO hard drive, and
then get the path to that image so that I can upload it?

There are really two challenges.

1) How do I / is it possible to save an image from the browse activity to my
XO?
2) How do I /is it possible to either identify its location on disk, or get
that image into the journal? (Using the file selection tool in blogger
brings up the journal on my XO, but all of the entries in the journal appear
to be text files.)


Thanks,
Paul
