Topic: help!!

[emmy1978]

I have been playing around with glittermaker and want to put it on here but being slightly thick about computers have no idea how to do so. All the things are there on the site for me to fill in but what do I put?
Be very grateful for advice. Have picked brains of computer literate sister but she doesn't know either!  ???

Emmy, Just had a look on glittermaker and you just have to fill in the top box with whatever it is you want to say, then choose you colours and whatever else, then click "make my glitter" at the bottom left.  On the right hand side it will create a code that you need to copy and paste wherever it is you want the glitterwords to be, for forums there is Forum hotlink 1 or 2.

Here's one i prepared earlier...!



Does that help?

Brill Sally, what do you type into forum 1 box? Just the address of A4A or the address that comes up when I'm on my profile page? I know, thick, sorry!

No, nothing goes in there, a code will appear and it will look like this..

so just left-click over the words and it will be highlighted in blue, then right-click and select copy, you can then paste into the box on your profile page and it will transform magically from the code into glitter words!
 So rather than telling glittermaker where you want it to go, you tell a4a where it is to find the image, does that make sense?

Sorry, slight delay, on school run! Yes that makes more sense!! Thanks and will have a go when I have time. Only found it as I was supposed to be writing essay and needed distraction! Thanks sally x
