TexasGranny Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share (edited) I have noticed quite a number of members are having trouble uploading their dinar pictures and thought I would try to help them out. So, here goes. Step 1. Make sure your "Profile" page at DinarVets is showing on your computer screen. Can you see your picture and/or name at the top? Step 2. Take a few dinars and fan them - hold them up to your computer screen and take a picture with your camera phone. Be sure you do not cover up your name/picture. Step 3. Send that picture to your email address for your home computer or laptop. Step 4. Open your email and save the picture to a easy to remember location on your computer/laptop. If you have picture editing software, reduce the size of the file and make sure it is rotated correctly. Step 5. Now open the thread on DinarVets to upload your dinar picture. Step 6. Type your message in the box, scroll down to Attachments and click on the Browse button. This will open a small window showing data on your computer. Find the picture you saved and double click on it. Step 7. Click "Attach This File" (If you fail to click this button, the picture will not be uploaded.) Step 8. Click on Add Reply and you are done. If you need more help, just post in this thread and I will try to help.

TexasGranny Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Share You are welcome caleb08. I work with a lot of people that are new to computers and some of them find everything about them very confusing. When you are just learning how to surf the internet and send and receive email, anything past that point is new territory and has a learning curve. Glad my post helped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do not have software on your computer that allows you to resize your pics, you can do so free at the following sites. http://resizepic.com/ or http://www.picresize.com/ Both site are free to use, just follow the instructions. You will upload your pic to their site, they will resize and you will download the smaller pic to your computer. You can then upload to DV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1967 Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share Texas Granny, Thank you very much for the info to get verified. I finally got it done with your instructions! Thank You,1967 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperboy Posted May 24, 2011 Report Share I'm going to add another set of instructions on how to do this, especially for those of you that may be trying to "copy & paste" like you do with Word doc's, etc. Try doing it this way: Go to the "Dinar Verification Thread" (3rd topic under Dinarified" and go to the area where you would normally post a message at the bottom. Click on "Use Full Editor" and a different window will open up for you to post on. Type your message here, then scroll down a little and you'll see a "Browse" button. Click on the Browse button and it'll open up your documents that are saved to your computer. Find your picture that you've saved, click on it & then click "attach this file". That should attach it to your message. Then just click on "Post" and it should load both your message and the picture. Hope this helps someone out. paperboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasGranny Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Between you and Granny, ya'll have covered it pretty well. I got my dinar pic posted...now if I could just figure out how to put a picture on my profile . Tried a couple times and no go. Oh well.... Okay, I'll give it a shot. Step 1. Be sure you have a picture easy to locate on your computer that you wish to use. If it is not a huge file, you don't have to worry about the size because the software on the forum will resize it when you upload. Step 2. Click on the words "Signed in as hoopster" on the left side of your screen. Step 3. On the far right side of the screen click on "Edit My Profile" Step 4. Click on "Change Photo" in the left column. Step 5. Scoll down to "Change Photo" and click on the "Browse" button. This will open a window showing files on your computer. Find the picture you selected and double click on it. Step 6. Click on "Save Changes" Walla.... you have just uploaded a picture for your profile. Basically the same process as uploading your dinar pic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok...Thanks Texas Granny, by posting this reply, we'll see if with your help, I finally got it right. Hope so. Thanks for all of your assistance. hoopster Looks like the picture came over, but not the animation. Tweety flies like your Kitty wiggles :-) I like your wiggly kitty. It didn't post it the first try; had to go back and "change Avatar" to get it to come over--but at least Tweety's here now.

paperboy Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share hoopster - when I click on your profile pic, tweety bird does fly. But not just looking at your posts. At least it's half-way there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RPMKIMD Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share From one Granny to another....finally..... thank you. Please verify me.

If you delete it the limit will go back to 500k but sadly the post where your thumbnail was will also lose the pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
