Okay...Trying to build a portfolio type page where a user should have the ability to download a hi-res version of the picture. Except I don't want the browser to intercept it and try to display it! The link can't be something long and descriptive (otherwise, I would've copped out and said "right-click and choose Save link as...). Should use HTTP, so I figure Javascript is probably one of the only ways to do this...

Any ideas? I've scoured the internet for at least a good half-hour and didn't find anything!
