Trying to save COA and upload to the forum

(1/5) > >>

Sir Ancelyn:
Well, I was able to make 5 versions of the COA and save them in PNG format, at least theoretically, to my computer. However I seem unable to upload them to the forum or even see them in my files. I do get lovely previews here though which look like what I made. Ed, what am I doing wrong?

To describe them, first I reversed the blue and the red to show the gold lions better:
1. Per cross Gules and Azure, 2 lions rampant contourney Or
2. Per cross Gules and Azure, 2 lions rampant facing inwards(?) Or
3. Per cross Gules and Azure, 2 lions rampant coutourney Or, Cross fitchy (?) Or
4. Per cross Gules and Azure, 2 lions rampant coutourney Or, Cross fitchy (?) Argent
5. Per cross Gules and Azure, 2 lions rampant facing inwards Or, Cross fitchy (?) Argent

Once I can post them here let me know which one you like best and I will run with that for my COA.

Thanks,
Ancelyn

Sir Ancelyn:
Fantastic, this computer does not recognize PNG files.

Sir Edward:

How are you posting the images? There are several methods that work. If you post them on a web hosting site, such as photobucket or flickr, you can post bb-code into your message to link to them. If you use the 'img' bbcode tags but use a local path (something like "C:\my documents\photo.png"), you might see it while previewing your message, but the file never left your computer.

The other method is to use the "Additional Options" button below the text box when posting a forum message, and use the image uploader there. You have to resize the photos first or save them at a smaller size, since it has a size limit. Generally if you convert an image to JPG at about 640x480, you won't run into the size limit.

Sir Ancelyn:
I will give it a try.

Sir James A:
I'm still working on getting a way for members to update their own info and COA. Sir Edward has master control and can update those files. I'm not sure on Sir Edward's thoughts of emailing it to him, but that may be a possibility. If not, you can PM me for my email address and email it to me, and I'll post it for you.
