Did a print screen this morning. Saved it in Paint as a Jpeg. It's there, i'm looking at it. :rolleyes: Start a new thread, go to copy it into the thread, no go. :bawling: It's a copy of a stat.

I can use the copy function, just the paste function is greyed out.

Have i saved it wrong? Can it be changed to work? Or am i going about it the wrong way?? :banghead:

I'm going to the puter shop to buy Sally her new Logitech MX Duo K/B and mouse and more ram. Might be good therapy as something as simple as cut/paste should not be that hard. :rant:

    You need to save the picture, then attach using the "Manage Attachements". :)

    Oh, Jon, to get to the attachment manager, scroll down to below the submit reply button, then click the Manage Attachments button, then a browse button on the box that appears. Find you file, attach it if it is not over 2 MB in size. I tend to try to bnew optimize what I stick up, and still mamnaged to ahve over 500 K accumulated to my ID last I looked. I got rid of some things from last August... :D

    In your User CP there is also an attachments manager, so when things get rad out of date you can trash the oldest stuff and save the site server some space. I use Corel Draw or Paint shop Pro to reduce density of images to about 96 PPI squared if I am gonna stick a digicam pick up, for things you prt-scr'd the density will be fine....

    Thanks guys, i'll give it a go. Been hanging out to post a message in the folding section as Sally had a brilliant run and moved up heaps of places. :thumbsup:

    It's all Short-Media's fault for being so friendly/competitive, lol. :tongue:
    Got me going too now. :)



    UPDATE: Worked a treat. Thanks. :)
