The one i tried doesnt use the savefiledialog option but it works.
If Me.pbdraw.Image IsNot Nothing Then
Me.pbdraw.Image.Save(IO.Path.Combine(My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.MyPictures, "C:\temp\TestFile.jpg"))
End If

SaveFileDialog does not save files, it merely allows the user to select the location and name of the object being saved. And the MSDN documentation explains exactly how to use it.
