Because of the period starting the file name, it will end up as a hidden file. Assuming that your username is "chris", you will save the file under your home folder -- "/home/chris". To see the file later, you'll need to enable showing hidden files in the file manager. Open file manager and type "CTRL+H", or go to View -> Show Hidden Files.
I learn something from you guys every day, thanks Gold_finger!
I also tried the mugshot install, which seems neat. It seemed to work fine, but the 1st time it came up it went to a screen "lightdm-webkit-greeter" in the main window. I closed it from the task bar and things were normal after that. Another re-boot and it was totally normal (no "lightdm- ...) but seemed like it took a lot longer to finally boot after password entry, but it came up ok.
Thanks for that link colin!
