How do you grab photos from a flash site?

As most of you know, you can right click on a photo on most web sites and "open in a new tab" in Safari or Firefox. This gives you a url that is just the photo and therefore great if you want to cross-post on sites like TGR. Unfortunately, I can't figure out a way to do the same thing for a photo that's in a flash sites. And lots of stupid ski sites use flash way too much. Anyone know how to get at a photo in a flash site? Even if I have to save the photo to my hard drive, that'll work and I can just upload it somwhere else (assuming there aren't copyright issues).

So geniuses, how do I do this?

print screen?

seconded.

Print screen gets the whole thing. Not what I wanted.

I must be a genius because I figured it out. My Macintosh came with an application called Grab that does exactly what I wanted. It was a piece of cake. I chose to Grab a 'selection' and then just clicked and dragged over it. Voila. It saved it as a tiff image, but that's fine. Then I uploaded it to tinypic and here it is:

These Guys make the track thingies. Looks kinda cool. Turn your ATV into a snow vehicle. I wonder how they do at climbing hills.

Yay. Something to make ATVs only slightly less gay. I wonder how it does in pow?

print screen and then edit it in mspaint or equiv to crop\resize to what you need.
not that you need that now, but for future...

grab is good. you can also shortcut (sorta) command shift caps lock 4 and get a little target drag select what you want it it captues and plunks the file on your desktop. you can change settings to make the file type whatever you want. jpg, pdf, png, tif etc...

grab has save options too so you can spec what file format you like.

end mac nerd session.
