In Chrome (Windows), Opera (Windows), and Safari (Windows): right-click on the image and select the "Save image as..." option from the menu that pops up. Save the image to your local hard drive (be sure to keep track of where you saved it and what you called it), then minimize your browser and any other open windows so that your desktop is visible. Right-click on the desktop and select "Properties" from the menu that pops up. This should launch the Desktop Display Properties dialog. Select the "Desktop" tab, then click on the "Browse" button and browse to & select the image you saved, then click "Open" to close the file-open dialog and finally "OK" to close the Display Properties dialog.
