Downloaded Files Default to Preview, Not PShop

Is there anyway to make downloaded JPGs default to open in PShop and downloaded PDFs open in Acrobat instead of Preview? I hate having to go in and "get info" to change the application for each and every download.

Thanks!

Once you do a "Get Info" on the JPG or PDF file and change the default application, click the "Change All..." button, and ALL JPGs and PDFs should open with PhotoShop/Acrobat -- even future downloaded ones.

Have you tried clicking on the jpeg and dragging it onto the Photoshop icon in your dock? Always works for me.
