WotC Map a Week?

[Ogrork the Mighty]

How come whenever I try to save the Map a Week, it always comes up as a "leaving.asp" file rather than the jpegs it's supposed to be? Even when I right-click.

Is it b/c I use Mozilla's Firefox?

No, it's because their server is boogered up. A browser can't do that unless your computer is pretty generally screwed.

Simply click the link, then save the JPG; don't right-click the link and attempt to save that way.

Tried that too. It simply loads the map on a new page and when I try to save, I get the same .asp file.

Just rename as a jpeg before saving it - the map is there, just with a screwy name and extension.

Try right-click-and-save on this link.

What I found was that the address bar shows the correct link, but the properties of the picture show the leaving.asp redirection address. If you click in your address bar and hit Enter, it should effectively refresh the page with the correct filename for the picture, and you can RC&S it normally.

Thanks, but still doesn't work. It does indeed refresh, but now the map gets all blurry and I still get the .asp file.

edit: Tried again but this time I simply F5'd the page. It reloaded the page and then I could save. Still a pain in the butt though.

Thanks.

p.s. are the maps supposed to be so big and unprintable???

Is there a way to resize these maps so I can fit them on a single piece of paper?

Lots.

Simple example - paste it into Word, and scale it.

Another easy way is to the scaling or "shrink to fit" options in the Page Setup or Print Preview menu...
