Jack, I am unsure what you are asking.

Are you talkng about "My Photos" in the NPN critique galleries, or a folder on your computer, or...?

We need some specifics as to what you are attempting to do. Once we have more info, we can guide you to a solution.

Jack... I dont know how computer savvy you are, but Photoshop is like any other program and just saves files onto your computer wherever you choose to save them. Once youre editing in CS5 if you choose "file" then "save as" you can choose where on your computer you want to save files.

As Preston said though, a more thorough explanarion of what youre trying to do would be helpful.

I use a program called zoom browser it is the softwear that comes with canon cameras. I like this program it is very easy to use and when i download the images from my camera they are stored there according to date. After i import and process my image in PS , save, and close . It doesnt return to the zoom browser file it came from, how do i get it to do this so i can find my processed image easier ?

Jack... a few more questions...how do you open the image in PS? Can you do this from within Zoom Browser?

When you use Zoom Browser to get the photos off of your camera, you either choose where it stores the files, or it stores them in a default location. When you open them in Photoshop you have two options to save :

-- If you just choose File -> Save, it will save the file in the same location that you opened it from. The file will be changed and if you open it again in PS or in ZoomBrowser, the changes you made should be there.

-- If you use the "File -> Save As" option, you'll be able to select a different location if you choose. It should also show you where on your hard drive the files are saved.

If you need help with general hard drive and file storage and understanding, you might want to take a look at this Microsoft tutorial or a page like this file and folder basics page
