Hi,

I hope this doesn't rate as a trivial question, but I am trying to paste a screenshot of my project set-up, but without much success. Am I right in supposing that I first need to paste it from a web page (which I don't have by the way)?

Regards

post your picture in the "projects" section, click on "post new file" and a couple of rows down it says
"Image:
Upload File [gif,jpg]:"

browse thru your computer and attach the file.
and there you go :smile:

"paint" can print the image.

expanding on MSpaint approach:

Take your screenshot (on Win2k/XP: prtscrn for full screen, alt-prtscrn for just the current active window) then go to Start>Run, and type "mspaint" (no quotes) and hit OK.

When MS Paint is up & running, Edit>Paste/Ctrl-v and you should see the image appear. Now go to File>Save As and navigate to a place you're happy with on your harddrive. Then under Save as type choose JPEG and enter a filename on the line above, click save yada yada...

then post your picture under projects as siberiansun suggested :smile:

Hi,

Thanks very much for your help. And again my apologies for a "basic" question.

Sorry i got a bit testy there (see edit) but i was responding to your post and then you would be posting the same question in another thread, i'd respond to that one then you posted in another thread...etc. It was late and you were winding me right up :lol: Hope you can record some sound now.
