[BantyChooks]

My 7 year old write excellent..
it's my 13 year old that writes the exact way you describe....and she does it on purpose.


Ralphie...where do you call home on BYC...I need to visit your grounds more often..
You are hilarious.

I dunno where he calls home (probably the MN group,) but if you're looking for him he can always be found posting duck recipes on Chrissy's thread.

If you go to the forums tab - there's a list at the top of the page for selections - selected either Watched Forums or Watched Threads and it shows a list with the blue dot or if no unread posts, it tells you so. ( I would post screen shot, but have never learned how to do that )

If anyone is worried about the change, do go and set an account to explore: posts are so quick and easy, uploading pics, attachments are also quick and easy.

I use my desktop to upload pics - had to use the "more options" and it works really nicely.

Honestly I was pouty with the announcement, but am embracing the new format

To do a screen shot using a standard keyboard, Push the PrtScn button. Open a new WordPad document and press Ctrl and V at the same time. Save your WordPad document and you now have a screenshot. Other options are available but the directions depend on which program you are using.

I'm using Macbook - I don't see a PrtScn Button, but will research.

Thanks for advice.

Apple's are very different.

Let me know if you figure it out.
I haven't even tried! lol

Sunflour - the short cut to taking a screen shot is "command, shift and 4" a little cross-hair will appear which you can move to where you want to begin taking the screen shot from, then just drag over whatever you want to take a shot of, and release. It will appear on your desktop.

ETA: Alternatively, use the "Grab" icon - you should find it in one of your folders if you click launchpad



A bit blurry, but the bottom left icon in a folder called "Other" on mine, at least

If I could do all this I would be rubbing my tummy and head at the same time in opposite directions in a circus sideshow somewhere....

It took me four years just to figure out how to take a screenshot on a computer so simple you just had to click on the screenshot button. About the same for these newfangled touchscreen majiggers.

Thanks - CMD+ shift +3 = whole screen. CMD +Shift +4 and drag = the selected part of screen.

It worked

.

Don't know why I never researched, that's a great tool.
