I thought (upon recognising in one area) this was a restricted Mod practice, but I have now checked 5 of the 20+ grpups including one I 'own' and they are all same.
Download/ Save appears disabled across the board.
Just for when and possible return to work Admins,

I just checked and was able to download photos a couple of different ways.? The most straight forward was to click the Download button under a photo, right click, select Save Image As on the menu, and save it.? The less optimal way was to open a photo, right click, select View Background Image, then do the right click / save on that image.? (I've found that the second method gives me a larger image due to the limit I've set for our photos on upload.)

Clicking the Download button sends the file as a binary data stream. What your computer does with that stream depends on your browser settings. With images, most browsers will simply redisplay the image. To actually download it requires a right-click and a "save as."

There is a way to force a download from the server side, but I'm told that caused other problems and was subsequently abandoned.

Hope this helps,
