Subject: Cannot save files to an absolute path
$image->save_content(file => '/tmp/image') saves the image in ./tmp/image instead of /tmp/image. Saving absolutly should be allowed as it is often helpful to queue things up in /tmp for example.

This was purely a documentation issue. It is possible to do what I described above. I have attached a patch to document how to specify an absolute path. This patch sould be applied to WWW/Google/Images/Image.pm.
