[X Newbies] Managing Web Images

[birgit rhoads]

Eugene, thank you.  Long time since I even opened IE.  Okay.  I found  
scrapbook items in Users/library/Preferences/Explorer.  I tried to  
import into iPhoto without luck.  I dragged the picture of Helen Hunt  
onto my desktop and still it would not open in iPhoto.  So I dragged  
the picture into Photoshop Elements 2 and it opened very nicely.   
Photoshop Elements 2 is a $99 application that I think you will find  
far better than either iPhoto or Graphic Converter.

Don't save pics into scrapbook anymore LOL.
