how do i save pictures from a shutterfly album? every time i try to save one (by right clicking), it saves an entirely different image than the one i'm looking at. any ideas?

I'll test this today.

My initial thought is that most of these sites like shutterfly, which are aimed at photographers, typically have some sort of protection in place to prevent downloading.

I'll make an account, upload and test in a bit.

Ok.

From what I can see, this site has two methods for sharing photos that a user uploads. Online sharing and Collections.

Online sharing emails a link to someone, they click, they view. Collections creates a web address for distribution.

In both cases, I was able to right-click/save picture as and capture the viewed image. However, I was not able to download the much larger 'actual image' that I uploaded, only the image as viewed.

In neither case was I able to obtain a postable image link.

Here is a test collection (http://testforlucus.shutterfly.com/action/) if you'd like test. The originals, as uploaded, are 720*540. The largest image size I was able to obtain above was 600*400
