Saving pics off the "new" ebay?

[ehh]

I'm kinda embarrassed that I can't figure this out since I consider myself pretty intelligent when it comes to computers. I like saving pics of items if they are rare or something cool that I don't plan on bidding on.

When eBay changed their layout last week you can't right-click, save as anymore on the photos, all you get is some java script nonsense if you try to find a way to save it. It's like they are embedded into the page now. This is only on some auctions though, if there are pics on the body of the auction when you scroll down you can still right-click, save as but if they only have pics in the top left that you can enlarge then I'm lost.

Any help?

Well, I figured out one way, but it's kind of complicated.

Assuming your on firefox...
1) View the larger picture.
2) Right click
3) There should be something about page source, or something similar.
4) Ctrl+f and search for the .jpg.
5) Paste the url, then save it.

Or like daflyboys said, you could just print screen and open it in paint or photoshop.

or on IE..... print screen and take it into a photoediting program.

If you're using firefox you could always simply disable javascript and right click and save them.
