    What steps did you take to save the pic and load it here?

    Looks like he's not on line right now, so I'll throw in my .02...

    First thing, grab a screen shot; I have Ifranview, and use the "Capture" function under "Options". That'll give you a file that has a picture of the entire screen, or portions, depending on how you set it up.

    Now that you have a picture, right click on the corner of what you want to save and move the curser to the opopsite corner, boxing it in. Now go to "edit" and choose the "crop selection" option, and then save it.

    Now that you have a file of exactly what you want, up-load it to wherever you host you online pics - it looks like he uses photobucket.com - and then , in you post, link to it's address using the "Image" button here (that's the one with the sun & mountain). Voila, you have a picture.

    For more options, try the link from this thread.
    Thanks for bringing it up again, though - it's a nice way to kill a little time.

    me in the comics

    oh god I wish I had a body like this....*sigh*

    had to do a bit of cutting and pasting to get a kilt to fit on the female figure...but I think it's alright. Here's hoping Hamish thinks my leathers match enough.

    Looks good to me, Cloves, and the leathers do match very well indeed. However, I think a Superhero (even a female one!!!!) would not allow her buckle to become encrusted with verdigris!

    hey Hamish, verdigris is my favourite colour! But then again it's one of my least favourite oxidations...
    Thanks Iolaus for the instructions how to post the images. I used a similar process:
    When you've got your finished page hit the Alt & Print Screen at the same time. This is essentially a Copy of the page. Then go to your favourite image working program. I used photoshop but there's InfranView or adobe Image something... don't recall. then i just cropped the finished image, uploaded onto a free image hosting site (as Iolaus said I've used www.photobucket.com). You can then Ctrl/C the [IMG] line beneath or near the uploaded image. If you cant do that you can either left click on the image to bring it up on it's own page and Ctrl/C the web address at the top of your page and place it on your message bracketet by [IMG] and [/IMG] which is either typed by yourself of put there by the little yellow and black mountain landscape square in the "reply to thread" page. Alternatively you can right click and select the"view image" option.you can do this with most images on any web page you choose, anywhere.This will then bring the image onto it's own page and then you can follow the steps from Ctrl/c and so on, as above.

    BTW glad you folks enjoy this time sucking ego boosting fantasy land. Any more?
    Cheers, Erin.

    A copper buckle of old would also turn that color green, with age...

    although it looks more to me like someone overdosed on radiation when making those buckles.
