How to Copy Smilies from this Forum you like to your harddrive

Simple are the steps to save icons to harddrive.

I'll instruct you through them.

 

1. Just click on one of the icons in any message

2. Up comes a window with the icon picture and in the down-right-corner is word "save".

3. Click on 'save'

4. Up comes a black window with the picture in the middle

5. Right click on that picture

6. The pop-down menu comes to view

7. Click on "save image as"

8. Now comes the view of your harddrive index

9. You need now to click through the options to find the folder for your saved smilies

10. Checked for sure that the "Data Name" line is highlighted

11. Right bottom corner is 'save' and 'cancel'. Click on save and it is in.

How to Post a new Profile Avatar

 

 

1. Click on your name in top bar on the upper right

2. Click on 'Change' when hovering over your Photo spot

3. Click on 'Use Custom Photo'

4. Click on 'Upload from File

now the index of all your folders/files open up. I am assuming you have pictures stored already in some folder labeled 'pictures'. -surely, I say in hope and belief. Click on Up-Load from file to get the list of pictures you need to look through.

5. After seeing the picture list then off to the right it is possible to preview the picture. The icon is up right corner. Just activate it by clicking on it and deactivate it by clicking on it.

6. Having chosen your picture by going through previews of them, click on the one you want in the list of ....jpeg

7. Uploading from file begins. The cropped version is on the right and the original size is on the left. 

8. Down at the bottom to the right it says 'done'. Click on that. All should be well and you now have an avatar like the rest of the elite ones.

Thank you Yentyl,

 

At this time I'll not be able to follow up as my computer is somewhat deficient but I'm hoping to take advantage of your thoughtfulness as soon as that is corrected and my own computer literacy  is increased.

 

Keep looking up!

 

God is Love!  Jesus saves! :smiley:

 

Lift Jesus up!!

Won I believe if you click on the icon and than the apple key, it will give you the option of saving to your computer.

 

Forget what I posted, I just tried that and it didn't work. For some reason I thought that was how you do it on a mac!! Sorry

By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

Aye yai, yai. S.Jobs certainly did not wish his Apple products to be compatible to MicroSoft products.

 

I have no experience with Mac at all, sorry.

 

Sysop uses the system so ask him for help.

 

Fly over to this site and scrowl down to 'What is the Finder'. http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201732

Highlight/copy/paste ought to be somewhere there when wanting to take icons from a website onto your drive.

 

I went here but couldn't fine any help for highlight/copy/paste. https://www.apple.com/support/macbasics/tour/

 

Best bet is to download a PDF instruction manual for your type of Mac.
