How to Post Pics

Gaieus

That can only be done by moderators. I also saw those topics - are you (or whoever suggested) sure that would be the best? I mean I know there are members who keep posting all there works in their respective "WIP" topics (which then tend to grow substantially long) while others like to separate all their projects into different topics.

I am not sure I would necessarily "prefer" either solution - it should be really up to the member to decide which taste he/she wishes to follow. So shall I merge your topics into an indistinguishable giga-thread (just because the subjects are similar)?

pmolson

I see what you mean, If one of the individual threads sparks an interest or morphs into
something unexpected it could end up buried in long list of other stuff.

I guess we can leave well enough alone.

Note that I am not reluctant to do it - just wanted you to think about it first.

pmolson

I understand.

Thanks.

I Wish I had someone to stop me from blundering forward
blindly in other aspects of life.

Gaieus

Note that I only seem to be so wise with other people's issues myself, too.

Rich O Brien

It was me who suggested the merging of threads. Only because of how impressed I was at them. It was in no way meant in malice. More out of eagerness for others to be able view all of pmolson's excellent series in one area.

It was an idea only, as I still enjoy either 'segmented' or 'welded'

As this is off topic from this thread I'll shut me hole!

Gaieus

There is no problem, Rich, at all. There are opinions (and indeed, some of the topics out of 6 as far as I can remember now) may sink - so anything could be "reasonable" - just up to the OT poster.

A little off subject, but it does relate to keeping the house clean.

What is the best method for combining several existing threads into one.

I have started posting a series of homes that I have completed in
separate threads, and it was rightly suggested that I combine them.

How?

Thanks.

Hi Pmolson, Hi Gaieus, Hi Rich, Hi Guys,

Just a little trick to add the benefits of all forms.. an idea introduced by Chris Fullmer

When you enter the title of a new topic of a series, just add your "[UnifyingWord]" in front of the title topic. Then you can use SCF advanced search and post the link

Like this:

.

And then everybody is happy

This was appended to another thread posting (by me), rather off subject there.

The image shows the SU upload dialog which leads one to believe you can upload more than one attachment at a time but which then ignores the request. I must be doing something wrong as folks seem to be able to use this. Simon mentioned a 3 file limit; if so, the dialog should say so, but I have no success with even 2. After browsing to and adding the files, and hitting the available singular 'add the file', only the first file is added.

Hi,

The multiple upload feature doesn't work I'm afraid. I'm led to believe Coen (Moderator/Admin) was looking into it?

But you can upload one at a time with no issues!

brookefox

Thanks, Rich.

Users of Vista and I guess 7 have a surprisingly handy screen capture / annotate tool included with their OS called Snippet in Vista, under 'accessories'; saves are in jpg. It is missing an auto-save feature which Picasa has but which is prone to derailment and which only saves in bmp. IrfanView's screen saver has no auto-save but will convert to jpg prior to save if desired.

Rich O Brien

I don't use Snippet, it's not too flexible!

Give Screenpresso a go

brookefox

Thanks for the link, Rich. I tried it and will again but display behavior was actually erratic and jumpy, and I could not easily configure the keyboard shortcuts.

Snippit is available on Windows 7 and thanks for pointing it out. I also use Picasa site to store my photos and seems to work fine, but haven't tried to link to it for the purposes of upload. Thanks for this thread, too.
