Oh you poor thing Gena. You are computer challenged aren't you? He he   ;D
No worries I'm here to help.

Do you know where the picture is located on your computer that you want to upload?

When I click on personal picture and clikck Browse I don't know what to do after that. ???

      Ok so you got this far right? If not let me know and I will back up.

   (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/compuploadfile1.jpg)

    When you click the browse button a window comes up

   (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/compscreen2a.jpg)

   Then go to the drive and the folder you are looking for.
    For illustration we are going to click to the C drive.

   (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/compscreen3.jpg)
   
    Double click on the file you want.

   (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/compscreen4a.jpg)

   Then double click the picture in the file you want to upload and it will look like this: (Partial screen shown)

    (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/compuploadfilea.jpg)

    The last thing you do is click the Change profile button and that uploads the picture. (Partial screen shown)

    (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/Compscreenchangeprofilea.jpg)

    That's it. Your done!  ;)

Make it ease on yourself and make a file. Click on your computer icon on your desktop.
Then go to your C drive it looks like this:  Local Disk (C:) double click on it.

Then go to the top left side where it says file (click) then go to New then slide over to folder then click.
That will make you a new folder on your C drive. When it is in the blue you can name it otherwise right click the mouse
on that folder and rename it. Put everything you want to upload in this folder.

    I hope that helped! If you need any more help let me know.

    Bless ya!  :)
   ~Paula

Sheesh! Can't a girl have any secrets?  :D  No, I didn't take a picture of my computer.
My husband uses the same technique for creating tech manuals.  ;)


Hey Gena, I've been reduced to sneaking onto my computer too. ;D  My husband thinks I've been spending too much time with my online friends and not enough time with the family. Gosh I'm sorry but I don't want to sit in the living room and watch cartoons with him & the kids. :D He he

Hi Paula,

Thank you so much for taking the time to put up the directions on how to upload a picture.
I have not been able to do that either.
I have tried several times, but it just wasn't happening for me.  :-\

It worked for me this time!!!  :-*

Peace and Love,
Iris

Alright Anne since you begged.  :D

It's real easy.  ;) When you get to the screen you want to capture. Press this button. (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/PrintscreenKey.jpg)

(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/keyboard4.jpg)

My husband says it works a little different on laptops. You have to hold down the function key and press the PRTSC Key.

Then you have to go to a graphics editing program. I use Jasc Paint shop Pro and the you paste it there.

(http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/PSP.jpg)

Now the image is going to be large so you need to resize it how you want it.

That's it! Easy!  ;)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iris, I'm glad my instructions were a help to you. Even though your image is purple flower and not your picture.   ;)


Bless yall!

Thanks for clarifying what that picture was RJ. That is some funny looking rooster!  :D

Hey Rick should I be offended?  ;D You would rather see a picture of my dog then me.  ;D

Let me run right out there and take her picture. He he
Title: Re: How to upload a picture
Post by: Kat on March 11, 2007, 03:40:47 PM

Hi rick,

We have a pomeranian(black) too.  She is actually my daughters, but I'm real attached to her since she's with me all day.  She sits in the chair with me a lot while I'm on the computer.
A sad story I'll tell is we had a pompom before her.  We had her only 3 yrs. when by a set of unforunate circimstances she got into the highway and was killed.  We grieved so much for her, after a few days I started looking in the paper to see if I could find another pom pom.  My daughter (her mom) was especially upset, but I have 3 daughters and we were all crying for days.
I found one newspaper add, so went to check out the litter.  She had one 'black' puppy she was selling, it was tiny, there was a red brother that had already sold and there was a runt she was keeping for a while longer.  Though it was only 8 weeks (young for so small a puppy to leave its mother), I knew we would be able to take good care of her, besides it I didn't get her someone else might have.  
So I brought her home and surprised my daughter with her.  Needless to say we all began to recover from our grief quickly.  Having such a cute little (about 1 1/2 lbs.) thing.  We were scared to put her down at first, because she might get stepped on, but no trouble finding someone to hold her.  Of course we named her Little Bit.
She is 5 lb. now and has no trouble running with the labs in the back yard.  
We gain so much from our pets, plus it's good to have something that never talks back  :)

mercy, peace, and love
Kat

Hey Kat,

   I know how devastating it can be to lose a family pet. It's like they become a part of the family.
When I was a little girl we had a pekingese dog named Little Bit. Just so happened I was looking through
an old picture album the other day and seen a picture of Little Bit. I thought you and Rick might like to see her.
Here ya go:

Title: Re: How to upload a picture
Post by: Kat on March 11, 2007, 09:39:04 PM

Hi Paula, 

Yes Little Bit turns out to be a very common name, as the vet told us.
I'm going to get my daughter to help me get a pic of our Little Bit up.

Hi rick,

Sorry I'm pretty clueless about computers.  My daughters show me or do things for me  ::)
Paula will probably come through for ya, she seems to know a lot, and helps me too  ;D
I love all the pics and stuff, seems to bring us just a little closer.

Hey Gena,

I have seen people use Bible-Truth forum to upload their pictures and paste it in the forum but I don't know how to do that.
 (other than for the profile picture of course)

I use http://photobucket.com/ to store my online pictures. It's easy and free to create an account.
Another place people use for photo storage is http://www.imageshack.us/

You just upload your picture, then you copy the link and paste it on the forum or anywhere else you want it.

I hope that helps Gena!  ;)

Hey Rick, I see that you have found a place for photo storage. That's cool! Keeta's a cute dog.
I was just teasing about you just wanting to see my dog.  ;D

Hey Kat, thanks for sharing your picture of Little Bit. She was such a cute puppy! She looks so sweet.

When I was growing up we always had an indoor dog or two, mainly pekingese and dachshunds.
Since I have become an adult I have only had outdoor dogs. Right now we have 2 outdoor dogs
a Black lab and a husky mix. They are pretty good watch dogs.

Hey Gena, that's was the first thing that came to my mind too!  ;D

Oh Susan, don't worry about putting your picture up if it is going to make your computer crash. He he  ;D

I know, I'm bad!  ;D

But I'm just kidding!  :D  :D

Title: Re: How to upload a picture
Post by: PKnowler on March 15, 2007, 02:05:46 AM
Hey Gena,

  Maybe you left a bracket off [ like you left  the "T" off your "wha  happen?"  ;D

Don't get too frustrated. It's probably something simple.

I assume you uploaded your picture alright. If not let me know.

Here's a sample of the code you copy:

     (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/Littlebitphotobucket.jpg)

Make sure you copy ALL the code all the way to the brackets {img}The Code{/img}
(I used the wrong type of brackets for illustration- otherwise they wouldn't show up.)
(Please note that all the code doesn't show, but it's there, make sure you copy it all.)

I hope that Helps!  :)

I am at school, but I will give it a try tonite.  Yes, I got the pics uploaded at photobucket and it looks just like what you showed, How do I paste it to get it all to show?  Cuz I did click that one.
Title: Re: How to upload a picture
Post by: PKnowler on March 15, 2007, 02:33:50 PM
Gena,

  When you click it with the left side of mouse it should highlight it in blue and copy it.
You will see the yellow Copied sign. This is the easiest way. See below:

     (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o314/PKnowler/LittleBitPhotobucket2.jpg)

Then you paste it (control v) where you want it.

((Or you can scroll to highlight it with the left mouse button pressed. 
Then press control c to copy and control v to paste.))

P.S. I know you know how to copy and paste Gena. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to use the other smileys.  ;)
I wrote it out for those who don't know how to copy and paste.

Oh my Word!!  What did I do????  I will go back and check things out!!  that was my BIG little shih tzu.

Ok. I went back and redid it but couldn't find anything to make it smaller.  Must be my original picture that I uploaded to photo bucket.

Well, hopefully a few of you will see him then I will take it off.  There have been 473 hits on this so far.

Hi Gena and Rick,

I found these scriptures in Isaiah, don't know if it goes along with what your saying or not.

Isaiah chapter 11:6-9
v 6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them.
v 7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
v 8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice den.
v 9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.

Hey Guys,

I wanted to try this picture thing too....hope this works!  Since we're sharing pics of pets, here's my two mixed breed dogs:

the black and white one is a huskey/lab mix and the brown one is a shepard/collie mix (i think)..they were both rescued...we got them before we had kids so I consider them my first kids!
