silly question. help.

Uhm, silly question right here. For eg, in Google Chrome, when you save a picture that already has that name is saved as "x (2)" for eg. How can you do that in Opera too? Thanks in advance.
Sorry if this is the wrong place, but I really have to get this done.

To me at least, it doesn’t happen often that I want to save different images under the same name so that the browser has to change it.

Anyway, I right click the image and select “Save Image…” It then produces a pop-up about where and under what name to save it. If there’s already an image with that name (which it tells me) and I don’t want to overwrite it, I change the name (or the location).

But I don’t know how to get Opera to change the name on its own.
If it's not in the computer, it doesn't exist.

If you're saving something (with a Save dialog) and a file with that name already exists, Opera expects you to change the name yourself. If you were using "Save to Download Folder" (where no dialog is displayed) then Opera will automatically rename it. Unfortunately, Save to Download Folder only applies to links, not to images ...
