Confusing how to use Flashgot

Hi,
It is a little confusing how to do something with flashgot so here I am asking how.

I have firefox and downloaded flashgot.
I want to go to google images (ie Tel Aviv markets) and get a bunch of web pictures of markets in Tel Aviv Israel.
Then, when google returns 99 thousand pictures, I want to just select a few (ie., 15 pictures from the 99 thousand) from the entire group of pictures returned.
I then want to batch download those 15 pictures to a selected directory on my hard drive.
So far, Flashgot downloads a whole lot more than the 15 I wanted.
How do you select the desired pictures and limit Flashgot to downloading those pictures only to the requested directory?
thanks in advance.
Bob

Neat. Never even knew it could do that.

Anyhow it appears to be working for me as expected.

I get the selected images.
And I also get the thumbnails (simply named as "images").

Either using FlashGot (Options | Downloads -> File extensions) or by using my download manager, I can filter the files such that I only get the JPG images.

I can select by highlight+drag, or by Ctrl+click on individual images.
