YouCouldBeMyUnintended Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Explain to me what a URL is and I might actually understand. A URL is an address for a website. For example, this page's URL is http://board.muse.mu/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=1062442 so if I wanted to post a picture form this page, I would type If this doesn't work, I am officially blonde...

Available Enchantress Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 You really are incredibly patient with me, you'd make a good teacher, I'm going to see if I understood it properly now and try to post a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gocanux Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 the website , the link from the site you are on..........like say if you go to http://www.microcuts.net and click on a pic, right click the picture and copy the properites...........then you just paste that (the url from the pic) btw And if you are like me and ocean5 before about 2 weeks ago, this "copy and paste" stuff is a mystery. If you right click on a picture, one of the menu options should be "copy"---click that and your computer remembers the link. Or if you want to copy text, or a web address at the top of your screen, hightlight it/the text/whatever, and then press "ctrl" (key at bottom left of keyboard) with "c" for copy. To put the copied photo/text/link into a post or wherever you want it, make sure your cursor is where you want the photo/text, then press "ctrl" with "v" (for paste---don't know why it's v, it just is). Then what you copied should appear. If you right-clicked on a photo and copied, you will get the web address for the photo, but not the image. Then you need to add the right after. And if you have a mac computer, it is the little squiggle button right next to the space bar, as there is no ctrl button on a mac. Good luck!

gocanux Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 True I should have explaned that better >.< How are you today ? Hi! i'm Finally getting to my yummy shrimp salad; LONG morning. To teach computer techniques, it helps to be a computer idiot like me. Really. my husband and son get frustrated trying to teach me new computer tricks, as to them it is all just intuitively obvious, and to me it's ALL a mystery! Like last night, my son was a bit short with me when I asked him to help me put some tunes from his iTunes list via the shared list into my iTunes. He had shown me once before, but he goes thru it so fast that I never remember all the steps. But break it down into simple logical steps, and repeat doing it a few times and I can learn it. And ocean5 and I are now coping/pasting/posting photos like crazy! Thank you Muse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL that's my dad, he is always asking me how to do stuff..........usually the same thing over and over again................I don't know alot but I know how to do some stuff..........I've been staying w/ my parents since I left my husband but hopefully sooner rather than later I can get my own place.........not that it's a problem, I get along great w/ my parents.........I need to teach Dad how to do some stuff but then there are some things he knows how to do and I don't..........

I think usually it means the picture host like photobucket or wherever the pictures are hosted may be down ? That seems to happen to me a lot. Refreshing the page sometimes does it. Other times it seems to happen to all images when I've been online a long time. Does anyone knwo how to post animations? Or, actually, how to make them? Methinks there's probably another thread for this sort of thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
