PImage.save() will not create parent directories (contrary to saveFrame()) when provided with a full path which will lead to an FileNotFoundException saying the image file can not be found (and is highlighting the wrong line).

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /Users/fjenett/Documents/Processing/faces/faces_001/saves/20090117/093445_361_12160x9120.tif

simple example:

PImage i = new PImage( 100, 100, ARGB );
i.save( sketchPath( "faa/foo.tif" ) );

(thanks meaning thanks for looking into it ... not thanks for the err!)

Ah, I should have looked at your example more closely. Never use "new
PImage()", only createImage(). This is noted in the createImage() reference
(we don't even cover new PImage() in the PImage reference).

Also, some further clarification. When using createImage(), you don't need
to use sketchPath() anymore, and intermediate folders will be created.

When using an absolute path (not in the sketch folder), we can't create the
intermediate folders, because there's no way to discern between a bad
(non-absolute) path being passed in, and subfolders in an arbitrary
location that don't exist that need to be created.
