    I just tried IE tab, and alt+s/p tries to post, as well.

    Right - Here's the source of the confusion - if you look carefully at the Reply screen, at the bottom, there are shortcuts posted - alt+s, alt+p, to post or preview, respectively.

    In my post about placing the cursor in the Reply screen, Carbon said that it would be nice if the above shortcuts were also fixed. Calum said that the shortcts don't work in FF but did in IE. I then determined that adding the 'shift' key allowed the "save/preview' shortcuts to work in FF.

    The cursor placement hasn't been worked out yet, other than the Tab-Tab, which Calum mentioned.

    I was curious as to why the shift+alt+p/s didn't 'work' for you when it did for Carbon and me - now I know!

        How to take a screen shot
        • Open up your Web Browser.
        • Or from the desktop. (for desktop screenshots)
        • Look on your keyboard and there should be a button (usually in the top right corner) that reads PrtSc or Print Screen, press that button.
        • Once the PrtSc button is pressed, Open up Microsoft Paint.
          • Click Start
          • Click Run
          • Type in MSpaint
          • Press Ok.
        • Once Paint is open
        • On the Menu bar click Edit > Paste
        • On the menu bar click File > Save as...
        • Choose the Save as type click the drop arrow, and choose Jpeg
        • Choose the save to location as the Desktop.
        • The click Save.

        Hi Guys, thanks for all thehelp. I think i'll try this one if no-one finds anything objectionable about it.  What I want to do is load a site avatar and most of them these day want you to have a picture up before you can load the site avatar. So I'm guessing this will work. Dunno however,

        So now I think I may need to know how to use photo bucket. By the way, Windows Vista has a gadget called Snipet or something that works with screen shots. Can I follow EF's advice and bypass it?

        One more thing, please. What is RSS and how does it work and do you need a specific program for it to work?

        Thanks

            From the File menu in Paint, choose Save As and pick the location where you want to save the file.

            And, yes, you can use the Vista Snipping Tool to "take a screen shot."

              Hi All, sorry I took so long getting back. I was busy working for My Idol...

              Okay so I have taken the shot and I guess it's right I reg. at ImageShack and I guess uploaded the print correctly because there is the image on the page but now I need further instructions to correctly post it on a site as an avatar. Then I'll be able to choose an avatar from the site.

              SO I am on the ImageShack page with a small photo in the upper left corner with Tags I guess on the right of it.

              Help please and thanks...

              Oh, an avatar?

              If the picture is on the computer, you should be able to browse for the picture and upload it on the forums.

                Carbon, that didn't help me at all. I still don't know how to move this picture from the imageshack page to the site where I want the avatar.

                The picture on the Imageshack page has  Images:1..1/1 on the top and bottom of it and on the right side are 6 Clicks to either: Share It, Image Details, Delete, Make Private, Edit Image, Make Glitttery...

                  Hi Broni,

                  I must have left something out when I uploaded the pic. When I RIGHT click the image All I get is a list of prompts.
