Max | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 02:24 pm     If you saved as GIF or JPG format, you can just drag the file and drop it into a browser window. You only need a graphics program if you want to edit the pic. You can do that a little bit with Paint which comes with Windows. To upload a pic to here, Click Format in the menu bar at the top of the screen, then click the link for other formatting and there are instructions for uploading an image. |
Max | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 02:25 pm     I should add... If too many people start uploading images too often to the board, the feature might get turned off. Lat year, there were too many pictures and they take up a lot of space which sometimes can cause the boards to crash. The caps that have been posted are great and I don't want to discourage folks, but we shouldn't abuse the privilege or we might lose it. |
Mosessupposes | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 03:39 pm     Delilah, it sounds like you do not have a photo viewer set to open the file extensions for your Screencaps. If you set-up IrfanView to recognize JPG and GIF file extensions, then your Screencaps will automatically open when you click on their file extension icons. So...open IrfanView...click "Options"...click "Properties"...click "Extensions" Place a check mark in the appropriate boxes. Look for the box in the lower right hand corner that says "Set Icon". Click and set your icon. Now reboot your computer. When you are done anytime you click a Jpg or Gif it will automatically open in Irfanview.

Delilah | Saturday, August 03, 2002 - 09:38 am     Max and Moses thank you very much! Max, I am able to open them now in a browser, that is brilliant! Could you please tell me how to upload them into the caption contest thread? I promise I won't upload too many I would also like to be able to send some to Sage and Tera for their sites. I have made some good ones. I am not sure how to send them via email either.... Moses, I did what you suggested and now my Jpegs and GIFs are associated to the irfan program, however, I can open them there but cannot upload them from that program (ie: when I right click on the opened file in irfanview, I do not get a menu) I know how to upload GIFs but I really want to know how to upload Jpegs (screen caps) Thank you so much for helping me, I really appreciate it!  |

Victoriafla | Saturday, August 03, 2002 - 09:45 am     Max, That's why I was asking and I don't remember which Tech board here... but is there a way we can create a photo album of BB where everyone can see the pictures. That way it won't take up room here?? Vicky |
Delilah | Saturday, August 03, 2002 - 09:46 am     Yay I did it!! Thanks so much Max and Moses! Do you know how I get rid of the C:\my docs Eric.jpg? (Ed: I just found out on another thread, thank you Moses!!!) |
Max | Saturday, August 03, 2002 - 10:44 am     Victoria, If you want to create a photo album, there are a number of sites that specialize in that. I use ClubPhoto, but I pay for a subscription 'cause I use it a lot with my car club pictures. I'm not sure if they have a free trial or not. Someone else might have a suggestion. |
Emjaycue | Saturday, August 03, 2002 - 02:24 pm     Max, If you are still having the problem with getting a black box in the RealONE player, here's how you fix it. Open RealONE. Go to the "Tools" menu. Click Preferences. In the preferences select "Hardware" on the left. At the bottom under "Video card compatibility" uncheck "Use optimized video display" Click OK That should do it for you. Note, not using optinmized video display makes the video run a little slower (duh). Not a big deal if you keep the window small and have a decently fast computer, but you won't be able to run it full screen that way at a full frame rate probably. But then again, you don't want to make huge blurry full-screen vidcaps anyhow :-). You can always turn back on the optimized display when you don't feel like doing screenshots. --M |

Bbtimes3 | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 05:25 pm     I hope nobody minds but this is a test also with IrFanView....hope it doesn't bother anybody. \Table.jpg |
Bbtimes3 | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 05:29 pm     Argh. It didn't work. I saved the pic to IrFanView as a jpg file on my hard drive. But when I went to post it never asked me to upload the pic. Could someone help me out and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks ahead of time. |
Bbtimes3 | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 05:31 pm     trying again.... /Table.jpb{table} |
Bbtimes3 | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 05:35 pm     sorry for the typo...LOL \Table.jpg |
Bbtimes3 | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 05:41 pm     c:\BB3pics\Table.jpg If this doesn't work I'm stopping after this (I promise) and mods can delete and hopefully some poor soul out there can help me. LOL |
Draheid | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 06:13 pm     Bbtimes3: What are you trying to do? If it's upload a picture, use the tag "\image{ImageName}" (without the quotes and the {} are Shift and [] keys). After you enter your screen name and password, you'll see a preview of the posting. After you click on post this message, you will be prompted to enter the name of the file to upload or you can browse for it by clicking browse. You must be using a fairly recent version of the browser that supports uploading. Hope this helps. |
Bbtimes3 | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 06:56 pm     Before I bother anybody on the board, am I supposed to designate my hard drive in the tag? Or do I only need to use the forward slash and file name? I've tried many different ways and I have gotten no prompt to upload my file. Sorry for being so stupid. Thanks for your help. |
Draheid | Tuesday, August 20, 2002 - 10:13 pm     Bbtimes3: You only need to 'browse' to the file you want to upload to give your browser a path that file from. Once you have located the file, and clicked the 'Upload' button on your browser, the file is sent and stored on the board's server ... nothing more for you to do from there. Note: Once you post a message and upload the file, any editing could cause your message to lose the image and you can't upload it again to the same message. (Learned the hard way! ) Good luck. |
