I gotta speak up for gimp. I'm not an expert in image manipulation at all, but even I can produce decent quality gifs and jpgs from it and there's a huge collection of tutorials available from GOOGLE! (Remember, if your question can be answered by google, you shouldn't have asked it.)

GIMP is free, just as powerful as Photoshop and the only reason it hasn't got as much publicity is the semi-dodgy name...

Apart from that GIMP RULES!!!

I'll cut a funny shot with it and put it up here.

This one calls for a straight pic to be posted and then funny things done to it. But since no one found us one all day today, I'll put one up and get working on it tomorrow. Gimp it up, gang!

Let's see what we can do with THIS...

Sweet I got a good idea for that one.

Edit: Everytime I edit the photo and save it all that comes out is a big black picture.

HARDCORE!

I have to disagree a little. I think people ask questions here because they feel like they are conversing with friends, who act like Editors. Googling the Internet gets you who know what. My particular peeve (on technical sites) is old, old undated pages. I've look through the source code to try to find the date, to no avail. I might find another indication that the page is 5 years old. Searchers who are new to computing might think the old terms they are reading are brand-new stuff, since they never heard of it, especially if the site couches them in the language of the new. (New then, old now).

Did you know the next big thing is switching from MFM to RLL hard drives?

Funny, the site went to Google cache after my first view and the original was truncated!

Here's a 'full-height' MFM drive. Old-timers, notice they don't say half-height anymore.

versus a 2.5 inch drive and a US cent and an UK penny

Krispy, if only you would have placed those drives in the urinals and posted that. :) And yes, thanks for that first thing you said. Nothing I like more than being called lazy when reaching out for help. Imagine how barren tech boards would be if everyone responded to requests for help with "Google it."

DCH, are you using Save As in the File menu? Be sure you click Select File Type and choose JPG. If you are already doing that, sorry, not sure what's going on.

lol I didn't notice the google comment. I hate have to rely on google for the fact that they give you a million pages and you have find out which one has your answer. I might as well do the mistake unless its expensive one.

I once was looking for the name of a movie and I had to go through 50 pages and I had the main characters name.

This was a long time ago, but man did i waste a lot of time researching wasted.

So google give me back 50 minutes you wasted of my time!...wait getting off topic..I will try and use paint omh hopefully it will work.

I once had a lot of trouble finding info on a cancer chemotherapy drug because the co-worker who needed the info had misspelled it. I only found it after somebody else had misspelled it the same way on the Internet. Back before Google,etc started offering alt-spellings.

BTW, the Veterans Administration says 80% of medical info on the web is bogus, and I believe it!

Sounds like a genius! I wish it was all that simple!!!

What is all this blather? Where are the 'shops?

Here's a head start for anyone who wants to give this a try.

Well, I had a great big hairy brain fart and couldn't come up with anything especially funny. And I couldn't do it dirty. So I did it Fallout 3...
