Downloading it to where ??? Cyberspace ??


When you preview a full size image, that image (jpg file) is sent from the server to your computer so that you can view it in your browser, i.e. it is downloaded. You may not save every full size image you preview, but in technical terms, you have downloaded that image. We have no way of tracking what the member does once he looks at the full size image (did he save it or not), so any "looks" at a full size image count as a download.

Also, this may surprise you...at the end of the evening, all the full size images you looked at probably ARE on your computer, in a folder designated "temporary internet files" in IE and "cache" in FF. It all depends on how you have configured your browser to handle that situation, but most users use the default settings, which means that unless you do a LOT of browsing, the full size images that you looked at (and did not save) yesterday and the day before are also out there!
