How To Save Background Images from Webpages with Firefox

This is a short tutorial on how to save background images from websites using Firefox. I see this question posted on forums and comments once in a while. Do not use these steps to infringe on any copyrights! Most websites and companies won't mind if you save their image simply for your desktop background, but most don't allow distribution of their material, if it is not open domain/free/etc.

If you do not already have Firefox Web Browser installed on your system, you can get it for free by going to Mozilla.com
Click on the Free Download button and save the file it sends you somewhere you can remember. Then simply run the file by going to where you saved it and double-clicking it.

Using Firefox, it is only two steps:

• Once at a webpage that has a nice background you want, simply Rright-Click off to the side, somewhere on the background picture itself, and a menu will come up:

Left-click (normal click) on "View Background Image". You will then see the full picture that was used as a background image for the webpage.

• Save the image. It can now be used for your desktop background, for example.

That's it!
