Hiya... is there any kind of app or something within Mac OS X that allows you to set a script that will automatically save a picture to a desired space? Basically I find a picture and I want to be able to hit one button to save the picture to a location without any other pop ups or anything.. is this possible and how?

Cheers for your time!

Paste into Script Editor
Change destinationFolder to the folder you want the images to go to.
Save as an application.

[php]
property destinationFolder : "wideboy:users:diggoryictures:" as alias
on open droppedItems
tell application "Finder" to move droppedItems to destinationFolder
end open
[/php]

In Automator, you can create a workflow "Copy Finder Items" set to the folder you want. You can save this workflow as a Finder plugin, giving you contextual menu item control, a droplet app or a folder action.
