How'd you get your screen shot into your post Jake?

Hit your "print screen" button on your keyboard (should be next to F12). Open a graphics editing program, choose "paste" from the clipboard (you may have to start a new drawing with the same pixel dimensions as your monitor display settings first), and resize however you wish.

Make your catsailor post and add the saved image as an attachment during the preview of the post. Once the post is online, go back to the post and view your attachment (in a new window). Copy the URL of the image that just opened in the new window that now resides on catsailor. Go back and edit your post and "insert image" into the text using the URL of the graphic you just uploaded.

What a surprise - someone from Dublin...

Cheers, Mike... unless that's photoshop. I can see we need some rules. Let's come up with a minimum beer mug weight...

Didn't even need photoshop for that one... Just plain ole MS Paint copy and paste. I hope nobody really thought that was real... I guess I should have waited until April 1st for that post.

Jake, either you have a list to port or your mouse does... you always fall over the same way!

John,

The left side of the course is simply more favored!

The trick is to stare into his eyes and keep them steady.......a couple beers might help.

Have Fun
