Hi,

I have a earth pic as my MacBook desktop and one friend like it very much. So i wanna to get this pic file and send it to my friend.

The problem is I could find this pic file in the system and could not save it and send it in a email.

Would anybody tell where is this pic file and how to get it as a jpg file?

Is the earth desktop pic the stock one that comes with OSX?

If so, it's in Library/ (The Library folder when you first open the hard drive and not the one in users/username) Desktop Pictures/Nature.

Another way is to do the following:

hold down the following keys:
shift+command+4 and then spacebar (command key is the one with apple logo)

Your cursor will change into a camera icon.. click your desktop to take the picture. This will be saved to your desktop automatically.

Now open it in preview and choose file>save as.. (make sure to select JPEG!)

Next step is to simply drag the file from where you saved it to your email and send it to your friend.

I'm not sure you should be distributing that picture.
