Saving / Downloading A Picture From Flickr Help - Different Than Instagram

AzzarTheGod · #1 09-05-2016, 07:59 PM

I'm not much into coding so I won't pretend to know anything other than the code of a Flickr page seems to infer an additional (impossible?) layer of protection against copying and saving photos.

Can anyone suggest a way to save a photo on Flickr? The Instagram method of inspect + locate the actual direct image URL is not working. (Because its not available.

Even a 3rd party screenshot program suggestion would suffice (although I'm hoping to be able to save the picture from the website itself).

Would appreciate any help with this.

And make sure to crop and leave 90% of the image as white space

This is actually a pretty amazing suggestion. I didn't know about snipping tool until about 3 years ago and felt like a total dots when I found out. It's like bout right in from windows 7 on, yeah? Of course, it only work with what is visible and so you don't get the native reso.
