OK so if your using a GMAIL account:

When you see the pictures that you need to download CLICK --------VIEW

DON"T click Download

The picture will come up...then you RIGHT CLICK[the image]--->>> Save Image AS:

AND CHOOSE WHERE YOU WANT TO SAVE IT: LIke your desktop

U can avoid your download folder all together doing this:

You can practice this at work if you want just email yourself a picture..!!!!!!!!!

^ That, or you can just change the directory that your downloads go to in your Firefox/Chrome/Opera/IE settings.

Just go to settings and uncheck download to that specific folder and ask it to prompt instead. Select wherever else. Profit?
