You have the means to save
any graphic you find on the Web. Saving them, and most especially
re-distributing them in any form, however, may be in violation of copyright
laws, which you must be sure to respect.

A SaveAs dialog box appears. (For instructions on how to use this box in Windows 95, click here). Nearly all graphics you encounter
on the Web are in gif or jpg compression mode. In fact,
