Saving Images in IE-based Browsers


During this tutorial you will learn how to save images with Picture Ace in IE-based browsers (MSN, MyIE2, Avant Browser, etc.). Note that the tutorial applies to Internet Explorer as well. If for some reason you cannot use the methods described in the previous tutorial, the method described here is the way out for you.

Picture Ace makes the process of saving images from the web really easy. Please not that there are several types of images, e.g. photos, drawings. Whenever you save images, make sure you configured Picture Ace to collect the right image type. You can do this using the Image Options dialog or the tray icon.

To save an image actually located on a web page use the Save Image item in the IE context menu.


First save the picture, place the mouse cursor over it, right-click and select the Save Image item.


Right after you select the Save Image item Picture Ace saves the picture to the current destination folder. To view the saved picture, select Open Sky from the tray icon menu.

Note that Picture Ace items in the IE context menu have keyboard shortcut to them. For instance, Save Image item - Z, Save Large Image item - Q, etc. It means that you can press the corresponding key on the keyboard (when the context menu is shown) instead of clicking an item with the mouse.

You can choose what items to show in the context menu in the Web Browser Options dialog.
