from what i can see they have dissabled saving and as i have NFI about computers i don't know a way around it.
any help would be appreciated... i want to save my ideas so i can play with them in photoshop.
thanks.

this is what i do henry -
when you've finished making the bug - you press the PrtScn / Sys Rq button on the keyboard which is usually next to the f12 button on most keybards.
This essentially takes a snapshot of the screen you are looking at.
then assuming you are running windows 98, me, xp whatever then go to "paint" - start button/programs/accessories/paint or if an apple then whatever
picture program equivalent they use.
right click on an empty page and paste and you'll see the screen pasted like a still picture into paint. you can then highlight the bug, cut it out,
paste it onto a new paint file then save it as you please - usually if you save as a jpg file its not such a big file so you can send it to people etc
if required.
hopefully that helps

Ahhh so thats how you do it, cheers Damo.
thanks, exactly what i wanted to know.
or if you're on a mac:
APPLE + SHIFT + 3 = full screen picture.
APPLE + SHIFT + 4 = crosshairs to grab any section of the screen.
