Okay I installed my desktop image by right clicking on a wallpaper at a now-forgotten website and clicking Set as Wallpaper, how can I save the image now? I want to change my wallpaper but don't want to lose this one.

I tried doing that and Firefox saved it in my Firefox directory - C:\Documents and Settings\(your login)\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox

Regedit: HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Control Panel > Desktop, find the Wallpaper key. It gives the location of the wallpaper stored as a bmp in Application Data.

You'd think that would be a built in thing wouldn't ya? Maybe Vista will have it! :p
