How do I use pictures from FB?
I want to surprise a relative with a mousepad and their picture on it. I'm able to see her photos on FB since we're "friends" there. Now I want to use a pic from there without her knowing it but how do I take it from FB? I'm not an avid user of FB and i'm not very technically inclined either. Can I do this?
Re: How do I use pictures from FB?
Right mouse click on photo. Select option "Save image as..." Save to your computer.
This may not work for your purpose, however. Facebook photos are uploaded at low resolution in most cases. Once it's blown up onto a mouse pad, it may not meet the minimum resolution guidelines specified by Shutterfly, etc.
Right Click --> Save image as. I don't know if it will be high enough quality to enlarge, though.
ETA: LOL...we must have been posting at the same time. I stopped to Google in case there was another way I'm missing.
