I’d like to see just how horrible someone can make a site. Facebook is a good contender.

    It’s not an image hosting site, it’s a social media site whose goal is to keep you coming back for more. The easier it is for you to save their content locally, the less likely you are to spend as much time on their site.

        If you’re running Windows, though, you can use the Snipping Tool to grab the part of the screen you want to save, which may or may not have an image in it.

            Doesn’t that call the same snipping tool? Anyway, saving from source may preserve quality a bit better

              I don’t think so. I’ve been using PrintScr longer than the snipping tool has existed.

              I’m not sure what “saving from source” would be for a screenshot. What do you mean there?

                They started replacing the default screenshot tool with snipping tool, but maybe it’s not the default to call it with PrtScr

                Saving from source was in context of saving from Instagram, I find screenshooting Web pages less fitting than getting into the source of the page, albeit the former is simpler
