Hello,

Can't figure out what might be happening with this:

I go to Google Images, select the option for only "Hi Res" photos and look at
a few i would like to put on my desktop, annotate them there with a small amount of text,
and then add to the screen saver.

In Google images, i check the resolution of the one(s) I want, and sure enough it is very
high res; perhaps 1 MB x 1 MB, or even better. Photo looks great.

So, I click on it, and do a Save It To The Desktop.

But now, when looked at on the desktop (file), the photo is only perhaps 100 KB x 100 KB or so.

What has happened ?

An, how do I save it to the desktop with the native high resolution, please ?

Thanks,
Bob
