Clueless on images

[simpletimes]

OK, so I may be in the minority here, this is the how to section so thought I would try to ask for help here.
I am have no idea how to post images or pictures here. I screwed up a few images already attempting to resize. I see images or JPEGs (?) posted on all the boards.
Please treat me as a comperter idiot and explain in easy to understand terms what & how to do this????

I haven't been here long but never get the opportunity to get on. Someone sent me an email today and I messed up and deleted it. I came to check it out and there was no messages? What is up? If you read this please send it

Try there first, if you still can't work out your problems then by all means ask here.

So how do you get an admin to allow custom status for you? Does it come automatically?

Your title depends on the number of posts you have:

1-29 - Virgin
30-99 - Experienced
100-299 - Really experienced
300-499 - Really Really Experienced
500-999 - Literotica Guru
1000+ - Custom Title

That help?

I see an anime pic on your profile. It's small, but it's there.

You all need to read the FAQ sticky like Quoll suggested. That should answer the vast majority of your questions. If you still have questions after you read it and attempt to post pics or whatever, feel free to ask and we'll do our best to help you.

Simpletimes, I'd suggest downloading Picasa. It'll allow you to resize, edit and upload your pictures easily. After you've uploaded them to your Picasa Online account, you can grab the links and post them here by hotlinking/inserting the images directly into the posts. And, yes, you can make your Picasa Online pics/albums private so you'd have to invite people via email to view them. Managing the sharing/permissions on your albums correctly will also keep your adult stuff out of view of friends and family if you have all of your pics on there and only want to share some/make certain ones viewable by certain people.

Next to that, download a copy of GIMP, which is a full-featured, completely free program that's like Photoshop. Then play around with it and google for detailed tutorials on whatever you'd like to do (e.g. 'resizing images tutorial GIMP'). There's a learning curve for GIMP, but it's well worth putting some time and effort into checking out some tutorials and playing around with the program.

Whenever you're editing images, always either create a copy of the image to play with first (right click on the image on your computer, select "Copy" and then paste it in a folder and rename it with "edited" in the title or something OR make sure you save whatever you're editing AS A COPY or use the "Save As" option. If you just click 'Save' or allow a 'Save Changes,' then yes, it'll replace your original image.
