Hi Jeff,

In both Mail and a web browser, you can just click and drag any image to the desktop (or any other location). The image will be copied there, keeping its original name and file format. While not perfect and not AppleScript, the results are similar to what you requested and the method is very simple.

FWIW,
Stan C.
