.....o.k ...so how do I (you) make those identifying circles around the problem spots ?......(I suck at computer stuff )

I use a free graphics program (kind of a mini-photoshop) called paint.net available from getpaint.net.

Excuse me Lucasind, i don't understand your question

I use the PAINT from microsoft, is very easy to work and edit images .

[Lucasind]

Thank you ! Everyday is a good day to learn something !
I will spend some time with it.

[Lucasind]

O.K.... I learned how to make circles and (or) boxes around things on pictures...from the selection easel (using "paint")
but....once I have done that ,I can't seem to be able to then move that completed photo to the
AVA "reply" box.....or....."new topic" box........ any help or suggestions would be great !
thank you .......................tony

I'm thinking the completed photo would have to be moved BACK to photobucket.... but I can't accomplish that seemingly easy task either ! Duh ! applies here.

I split this discussion off the General - Voyager XII (1200 Four) forum topic "lights and gauges out" as it's off-topic.

After making your edits to a photo using Paint or any other program, save the photo, upload it to Photobucket or wherever you host your photos online then follow the instructions in this topic (You've already posted photos before Tony! You cannot "drag and drop" photos into the "reply" section.):

This has probably been asked before but why can't photos be posted here as easily as they can be on the "Classified" section?

[debron]

Two different software systems made by different companies and each chose to handle photos differently. The drag-and-drop system used by the classifieds program physically stores the photos on our website using our disk space and bandwidth while the forum software simply displays the photos in your browser, calling them from other servers as needed. Storage space is not really an issue for us but could be for larger organizations with larger forums. In the end, when using free software you can't be too choosy!

Thanks for that tip Ron. I knew I could not drag and drop into the forum, but what I did not know was that the "save" and "save as" was under the dark blue box in the upper left hand corner of the "paint".
Once I found that ,I figured it out from there. Once again..... thanks for your patience when dealing with us "less than competent"at computers, members !



Showing my competence at drawing a circle (kinda crooked) on a picture.

Tony, great job just keep practicing. Heck you're the only guy I know with 4 cycle DNA in his deck, if you can live with that you can master this!

[Lucasind]

Thanks Scott, My future posts will now start looking like what most people have known since 1985 !
Oh well......better late than never. Might be a idea for a part of our forum, to help the
"less than competent" users learn a thing or two from other members on creating better posts and getting their message across...............................tony

...Showing my competence at drawing a circle (kinda crooked) on a picture.

Use the circle (oval) or other shape drawing tool. Choose the color of the line and the thickness.

[Lucasind]

Thanks ! I AM capable of learning something new !

OH,...NO! Doug, I think you have created a monster, and he drives a Voyager 1300, and a few others!

Bruce (Robert), You keep calling me "Doug" (though that does happen to be my middle name.) That monster was created sometime earlier!

[trikebldr]

Hmmm, why do I call you Doug? I dunno! Just old age I guess. I bet I won't anymore, tho'! Maybe I perceived that your middle name was Doug! Ooo, eee, ooo!

[Lucasind]

........Too Funny.
