What are the steps to transferring a SL photo out of SL and into your "My Documents" area?

If there is already a "how to" thread on this, could you please kindly point me to it.

Thanks.

(Also pasting a url won't help me much as my computer will only open live links on SL forums 'cuz my computer is set up weird at the moment. So the how to steps would be greatly appreciated. I think I can figure how to transfer photo into photoshop once it's in "My Documents" area.)

hi Avawyn,

To save a photo or texture to your harddrive, double click the texture, be sure its the window that is touched last before you proceed. Then, go to FILE, down to "SAVE TEXTURE AS...". It will then give you an option to choose which folder on your harddrive you want to save your photo or texture.

Thank you! I never would have thought a photo was a "texture". I found it interesting it's a tga file as I've never heard of that. Anyhow, it worked and opened very easily in my photoshop! :)
