[Christian-Samurai]

OK here we go this is for those who dont already have this step done yet :D

First if you have already registered and have yourself an album, log on to it, (if you dont go get one heheheh )

Once you have logged in, On the left hand side you will see a list of options, click on the add items link,
click this link to see a photo of this (http://yqnews.org/modules/gallery/gallery2/v/members/Christian-Samurai/Gallery+Help/additems.jpg.html?g2_navId=xc80cb9bb)

it will open a page on the right with a few tabs at the top, select the one that says Windows XP there you will have the addon that you will need to install to help it be easy for you to add the photos
click this link to see a photo of this (http://yqnews.org/modules/gallery/gallery2/v/members/Christian-Samurai/Gallery+Help/additems1.jpg.html?g2_navId=xc80cb9bb)

on the instructions it tells you "save this target" this option can only be gotten if you use the right hand mouse button to click on the link.

OK if there are any more questions about this please post them here and we will go over any steps I missed. OK now to get working on part 2 how to use this new toy :D

thx! i already did this. what do i do next?

[Christian-Samurai]

so you got the file and installed it?

[redeemed]

hugh?? i clicked on windows xp and it showed me how to do it but i don't understand the directions (mainly because my computer won't give me those opitions)

[Christian-Samurai]

OK give me one sec to explain more

[Christian-Samurai]

OK this if for those of you using IE in windows XP ( Firefox users should know how do to do this and if you dont shame on you j/k )

1: If you have right clicked on the link in the 2nd image above you should get something like this
click here for the image (http://yqnews.org/modules/gallery/gallery2/v/members/Christian-Samurai/Gallery+Help/additems3.jpg.html?g2_navId=x876c190d)
In which you should only need to pick RUN and then it should take you through what you need to install it, once installed reboot your system to make sure everything that is needed for this to work will be loaded, after that you should beable to follow part 2 of this with ease

2: now if you right clicked and selected save as should get this
click here for the photo (http://yqnews.org/modules/gallery/gallery2/v/members/Christian-Samurai/Gallery+Help/additems3.jpg.html?g2_navId=x876c190d)
In which you need to make sure the name is the same as you see in the photo and you need to make sure you remember where you saved it. once you have it saved to your system then go to where you saved the file and open it and it should take you through the steps needed to install it ( anyone else have something else happen when opening it?) once installed reboot as stated above. Oh and you can delete the file when you are done with it.

[redeemed]

it won't show me the 2nd pic that you had.

[Christian-Samurai]

it won't show me the 2nd pic that you had.
what do you mean? it wont show you the save as screen??

[redeemed]

yeah that's what i meant but i just pulled it up.

[redeemed]

should i just click run?? (it doesn't give me the option of installing)

[Christian-Samurai]

Ah ok, well sometimes if you have the browser to save files automaticly to a spot on your system it may not ask you it may just save it to that spot. It just means if you dont see that besure to check where you normaly save it :)

Yes RUN it :)

[redeemed]

oh, it says open my windows explorer, should i just go to my pics? or what? (i know i'm not very technical am i! lol)

[Christian-Samurai]

[redeemed]
