    With thanks to Jules-2005, here is today's crossword solution in picture format!

  • Had 2 vouchers through now (one for me, one for the OH), still waiting on 3. One ordered on 27/7/05, the other two ordered a week ago or so. Seems that people who ordered after us are getting vouchers.
    In a rut? Can't get out? Don't know why?
    It's time to make that change.

  • Do the love to shop vouchers have an expiry date coz it doesn't say anything on my sisters one?

    I ordered one before her and she receives one before me... :confused:

    Droopsnout, How do you get the crossword to appear like that ? It would be much better if I could copy it instead of typing out the answers.

    Thanks Jules
    There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word which means more to me than any other. That word is England.

    Hi, Jules.

    First of all, obviously, complete the crossword. You can get rid of the red "Congratulations" box by clicking on any letter square in the crossword.

    What I do next is to load Paint Shop Pro, and take a screen grab. (File > Import > Screen Capture > Start) I expect you can do this with many other graphics packages. I then draw a box around the crossword square, and on release of the left mouse button, PSP sends the grab to its working window. From there I save it as a .jpg file.

    I then log on to a Photobucket site (http://photobucket.com/) I have just for this purpose (free storage of digital photos, scanned documents, etc) and upload the saved crossword image that I have just saved on my hard drive. When the image is uploaded, I copy the URL of the image.

    I then come back to MSE, and insert the image by clicking on the image icon on the Reply page and pasting in the URL I've just copied.

    Click on submit and the image appears on the forum.

    It sounds more complicated than it is! All this is necessary because the forum will not accept images stored on your hard drive. It will only take pix from the web.

    Hope this helps, but if you need any more advice, perhaps it would be better to PM me, to avoid boring people who don't want this on the thread!
