Dragging pictures to desktop

Like any other browser, dragging images, jpegs, from the browser to the desktop is no issue. But in Opera, WHY can't you drag images to the desktop. It seems only possible to drag the darn shortcut which is a link to the image. It will still have an extension like .jpeg but it has an opera icon and it only opens in Opera.

Can''t one drag the actual image to the desktop???

Thanks,
John

Same with Firefox.... Opera is the only browser I have noticed where dragging images directly to the computer's desktop or any folder on the computer cannot be done.

Is there a setting for this? Thanks, John
