However, on this website, the right-click menu gives me no way to access the image (screen-shot below).

I have tried everything I can think of, including looking at the HTML and CSS code. I cannot figure out where the image comes from.
I've tried both Firefox and Chromium.
Is there a simple or straightforward way to get the image?
Notes:
- I have been given permission to access the image (no copyright violation).
- Getting hold of the web developer in time for publication may be difficult, but I shall try.
What is the link ?
However try using copy link location, then paste that into address bar which should show only the image, then try saving that image ? or save link as and see if it it saves as an image
And are scripts blocked ?
Re: Get image from website
If the image is smaller than your screen just take a screenshot then crop the image as required.

The image is within a link to the main website, so I just get the website's URL.

I don't think so, but I have tried using the RightToClick add-on to no avail.
I tried an experiment. I saved the website to disk (Firefox > File > Save Page As > Web Page, complete). I disabled Internet access; cleared Chromium's cache; and loaded the website from the disk. The logo still appeared, yet I cannot find it anywhere in the folder where I downloaded it. I am so confused!

I thought of that, but I need the image in the highest resolution for printing the magazine. But I shall do this if everything else fails.

so which image is it you want ?
I can save them all ?
I presume you want this one ? http://imagebin.org/239191
or do you mean the hand in the upper corner which is part of the larger image ?
Re: Get image from website
If you're talking about the "Kennington Health Centre" logo at the top of the page with the drop-shadow, that's not an image, it's normal text with some clever CSS for the shadow (if you want proof, select part of the words and copy into a text editor). If that's the logo you need then a screenshot is in order, as already suggested.

That's the one! Well, that explains everything. I've wasted about an hour on this, LOL.
Oh well. Thank you for the reply. I shall do a screen-shot as you say, or try to duplicate the text in the magazine.
Thanks again for everyone's help!

The coiled stethoscope saved normally; to get the stethoscope held in the hand use http://www.igpedit.co.uk/designs/1/img6.png.
I'm assuming you're using Firefox. Just open it in safe mode. I think one of your extensions may be cause of the confusion.
Sorry! Saw what you just posted!

What confused me and made me think that it was an image, not text, was that if I "grab" the word, the entire area moves as if it were an image. Highlighting individual letters requires that I start from further to the left than usual.
See the screen-shot, where I am in the middle of moving what I thought of as an image.

Live and learn!
EDIT: How cool—the font family is Ubuntu!
Re: Get image from website
If you want to try and recreate the text (I'd use Inkscape) then it actually uses the 'Ubuntu' font. What a coincidence :)
