You appear to be trying to save the file as
Shark Bate Blue.jpeg
and the prompt lists *.jpeg as a valid variant (although I always
export as .jpg) so try removing the spaces from the filename.

On linux, or any other 'nix system, spaces in filenames are nothing
but trouble, so I suspect they might be breaking the export function
for you.

But, you appear to have a transparent background.  Does that get
automatically removed in a jpeg ?
