How To Download a Picture from MMN Photo Album

This description is correct for my PC, and the logic should work on yours as well, but some details may vary. Here's the way I download pictures from our album.

1. Open the photo album at: http://picasaweb.google.com/stoneridgefarm/MemorialDay2008

2. When the album opens, you’ll see Steve in a blue shirt with some great looking dog. You’ll also see all the other pics. Select one that you want (in this example, I’ll pick the 6th one (close up of two puppies working tandem) and click on it once.

3. That opens a new window with a much larger image of the puppies. At the right hand side are several windows. The second one has a link “download photo”. Click on that link

4. A “file download” window will open asking whether you want to open, save or cancel. In this example, I’ll select “Save”

5. That opens a Windows “save as” where I can select where I want the picture to be saved on my PC. This is where most people become uncertain. The pic is named “MemorialDay2008-06.jpg”

6. Save it where you want, perhaps to your “media” like a pen drive or the directory where you keep your pictures, or your desktop. It doesn't much matter where, but be sure you write down where you put it so that you can find it later. Then repeat for the other pics you want. I recommend you save them all in the same place.

If that doesn’t seem right, just let me know which ones you want (when you open a picture, Picassa refers to it as “Photo 6 of 17”). If you just call it #6, I’ll know what you mean. I’ll email those directly to you.
