CO website question

Computer crashed and burned at home and I lost some pics. Is it possible to "take" the pics I have posted here in older threads and save them back to my hard drive? I tried right clicking but all I seem to be able to copy is a link back to here where the pics is posted.
Thanks

I would think you could re-save the pics. You should get a number of options when right clicking on a pic. With Google I get a number of OPEN, COPY and SAVE options. My preferred procedure is to first OPEN in a new tab, then open that new tab and finally SAVE AS.

Click the picture to make it full size (only item in the window) and then either right click - save image, or in firefox, just drag the picture to your desktop or folder of choice.
Keep in mind the size will be smaller than your original.
Given the cheapness of memory cars, you might treat them as 35mm negatives like I do. When the card is full, write protect it, label it, make sure its contents is on a hard drive or cd, and then store it away.
