    Trying to copy charts of SUA readings. Keith had left some instructions but I haven't been able to decipher them, yet.

    I couldn't figure those instructions out either.? When I recently wanted to post a picture, I uploaded it to a free picture sharing site called tinypic.com, then copied the url, pressed the insert picture icon here on gout-pal, and pasted the url where it said “Image url”.? It worked fine.? There a a lot more picture hosting sites than tinypic.? I just like to use that because there is no registration and it always seems to work.

    Even with a bang on the head, I can't find a way to misunderstand my notes about ways to share your photographs or other information about uric acid and gout Wink

    If it were made clear that file sharing sites besides dropbox were acceptable it might reduce some of the confusion.

    ?

    Sometimes people just want an image to appear with their posts, and won't want to sign up for yet another file sharing service.

    Sorry, Keith. As the the saying goes: “The baby knows what he's talking about, the reason the adults don't understand him is because they just haven't learned his languish (language), yet. You, Keith, being the computer baby, you know what you are talking about, me, being the old computer fart, I haven't learned YOUR languish/language, yet.
    ?

    I had signed up and had gotten a Drop Box account, but didn't know what to do with it so got rid of it after it clogged my screen for some time.

    I miss the good, ole days when I just “copy” and “paste” a phrase, page, or picture from one file/page to another.We used to be able to do that over a year ago on your forum, till one day we could no longer and never since.CryEmbarassedYellConfused

    1. Click on Insert/edit image (tree icon).

    2. On the pop window click on the image after Image URL line.

    3. New window must appear with Upload Tab.

    4. Click on Browse.

    5. A new Window would appear (OS window), browse your computer and select your file.

    6. Click Upload. Progress line appears for a second and window would return to blank, this a little weird.

    7. Click on Browse Tab.

    8. There is a page selection. The images are presented in alphabetical order, change page until your image appears.

    9. Click on your image, new window (really is the first would appear), click Insert.

    10. Done.

    hope it helps.

    And at least once a week, Microsoft Internet Explorer users (aka the majority) would complain that badly pasted articles were blocking a thread completely.

    It looks like the baby has a memory that the old farts have lost (perhaps cos the baby was always left to clean up the shit)Smile

    Keith, for once, I can't argue with you about that.Wink That's why I don't use IE, but Opera or Firefox. Oh, I got it alright installed (you hardly get a computer here without IE) but I haven't used it for over 2-3 years.

    Well, I don't have to ask you, Keith, if you are improving. I can tell, the devil has a hard time to knock a hardy gouty like you down. He may be able to kick you down the stairs, but ain't going to “k o” you!!!

    Ernesto, thank you for trying to help me, but I am beyond help. While I was able to follow through till I got the window with Browse, Upload, and Folders, I was unable to get the file with my charts. Only files with gif, jpg,jpeg are showing up in my folder where also my charts are. They are in a Microsoft spreadsheet. This has been my problem from day1. All my personal files, folders, containing documents or charts are either in Microsoft Word or Excel.
