hey sweet... yep that was the problem... i love forums haha... they help us non smart people out so much.

Go Utilities>edit plugins> and hit the scan directory button. Point it at the top level of your plugins directory and it will find every plugin in there.

Image save is a plugin, just like SasLite, so you won't be able to save any renders untill you have your plugins right. In fact half the program is plugins, so it's the first thing you have to do.
