  Anyone know how to do this using a Mac?  I'm not the unfortunate individual using a mac, just have a few members in the CC that would like to know.  Can you use TinyPic with a mac?

  Hi Daddy..

  Download the free app called " Grab " for macs. ( captures screen images).  In the meantime, go to photobucket.com  and set up an account.   When your scorecard comes up, use ' Grab" to capture the screen image, and upload to a free account on photo bucket. Then use html to link it to your profile page or blog..

  have fun...

  Thanks Tim.  I just doubt I can get away with that general set of instructions.  Can you provide more detail ... like instruct your grandma how to do it with her brand new mac?  I'm a windows user, so this is way beyond me.  I personally don't have a problem loading my scorecard to a forum post ... but I have no clue how to instruct a mac user (in detail) how to do it.

  Assume after +grab+, card must be saved somewhere?

   

  Then, in PB, would be just like windows Kat/

   

  But thought Macs have a full capture screen thing already?

  I think you8 till have to save somewhere (folder/etc) to upload it.

  Awesome ZioMio!  That takes care of part 1 (capturing the scorecard).  Can a mac user use Tinypic or is there another suggested program for Mac users?  Also, how do you copy and paste the URL address of the converted picture to post on a WGT forum post?

  Remember, I'm trying to put instructions together even a grandma with a new Mac and no computer experience can follow.

  Hey Hawgy and ScottHope,

  While I might be blonde and female, I know how to capture a screen, edit it with Paint and post it to a WGT forum using Windows (which is the OS you used to capture and save your scorecards to this post).

  Since I'm not a Mac user, but members in our CC are, I'd like to get instructions together for them so they can participate in our special forums as well.

  Now if there are MAC users out there that know how to do this, and can break it down for someone OS challenged, please share with me.  When I have my instructions together, I will share with everyone on WGT.
