Jordy:
So did I! I have screenshots! I'll try and post one now, using the img button in the posting screen.
Right. That wanted me to post an url, so that's not it. Or I'm doing it wrong.
Ah well, I'll wait with you for a better reply.

You need an (
http://www.ftpx.com/) >FTP< and an upload site to post your screenshots. If you don't have your own free web space you can find plenty of sites on the web to upload your shots and post the links to the forum. :)

Oh dear. It will have to wait then. I thought you could just post it as an attachment. Ah, but wait! I see below this very posting box:
Forum Rules:
You may post new threads
You may post replies
You may not post attachments
You may edit your posts HTML code is ON
vB code is ON
Smilies are ON
[IMG] code is ON
Is this something I can change, or is my forum rank too lowly for that?

alas, ania, those are the rules for this forum. because of the design of the forum software, it won't change.
you can get yourself a free account at (
http://www.ranchoweb.com) and upload pictures directly from your computer.
once you have uploaded them to your account, you are given a web URL/location for each picture and can then use them to post on forums. it is pretty easy. :)

Ania-looks like we'll have to find ourselves a website then :) I found (
www.freebielist.com/webspace.htm) this page which looks quite helpful. Note that some of the links refer to hosts which offer FTP access, like howie mentioned.....
Tune in tomorrow for the continuation of Ania and Jordana's quest for the screenshots of gold!!

I think my ISP (freeserve) offers free webspace. I'll get on the case once I've had the viva (this Friday, gulp!). If I'm successful, I shall be Dr. Ania. If I'm not, I'll have Morrowind and this forum to blame.

Well I hope you do OK! What's your doctorate in?
I've had a look at angelfire and their free web hosting seems ok. I've already gone screenshot crazy and taken about 60 :)

There is a problem with AngelFire... it doesn't let you link to pictures that are stored on their server to other sites. There are ways around it (like giving your pics a .txt extension and linking that instead).
If you want to send a few (4 or 5) pics to me, I'll be happy to put them up for either of you. Just zip them and send them to [email]striker@ttlg.com[/email] . Now all I need is some pictures of my character! :D
Oh, and just to make sure you are aware, if you want to post pics using the IMG tags, be sure to make them 640 by 480 or smaller in size. If you just post a link to them (using the URL tags), you can make them any size you like.

Thanks. The thesis is an edition of an (approx) 17th century Irish fantastic tale, from manuscript. It includes the Irish text, an English translation, commentary, notes etc. It's about 220 pages long and it took me six years (was meant to be three, but I am lazy and I like partying)
If I don't pass, all is not lost. I get another few months to get it right. I hope this will be it, though. I'm sick of the sight of it.
And, back on topic (I try!), I got Morrowind about a month before I handed it in. Bad idea. Bad, bad, bad.
Striker- thanks. I'm going to take a few more screenshots first. I only took a few indoors so far. Besides, see above. I really MUST prepare.

Thanks Striker, that's very helpful :thumb: I'll try to send you a couple of my best screenies over the next few days......
Ania-put down that keyboard and get some work done! :nono:
