I want to download several hi-res TIffs from the NASA/JPL Photojournal site, but my browser wants to save them as a Quicktime movie. How do I simply save them as a Tiff file to open in Photoshop? Is this a problem with my browser (Exprorer 8) default settings or something intentionally setup on the website?

Thanks for any help!

Tom

It sounds like you your file defaults for opening Tiff files captured by Quicktime. To fix this, find a Tiff file anywhere on your computer and right click on it. Go to Open with or select program. Pick photoshop or whatever and check the box to always use that program.

Other option: right click on nasa photo. Choose save. Once saved, you can open with any program
