Thanks to Syndee Nuckle's great tutorial in a recent Newsletter, I made a blinkie and wanted to attach it to an email and also put it on my facebook page but I am not having much luck. I did see where photobucket will share with facebook, but I have to agree to let them post other things to my page and not sure I want that! Can someone help me with these two things? Thanks

I don't know if it would be an option for you or not, but have you tried Dropbox?

Making a blinkie is on my to-do list thanks to Syndee's great tut - and I do have Dropbox but honestly have no idea how to use it to attach a blinkie to an email. I really haven't played too much with Dropbox so am hoping for some advice on that here too!

Theresa?

Thanks, Theresa - I had lost that article - thought I had pasted it into my notes, but hadn't.

I am not sure what email carrier you have, but you attach a blinkie in an email just like any other attachment...

Make and save your blinkie in your preferred folder on your computer. Go to your email and write a message or whatever, somewhere on your message there should be an option to "Attach files." When you click this a box should pop-up so you can navigate through your computer's folders to wherever you saved your blinkie. Select your blinkie and then hit OK. This should attach your blinkie to your email and then you can send it.

HTH!

I use gmail and I've used one for my signature. If you get an email from me, it will have the "I Love ScrapGirls" blinkie.

My Gallery I scrap with Photoshop CS6, but can help with older versions: PS7, CS2 & CS4.

That's true!

I've gotten one from you and it does have that blinkie - I think something is wrong with my attachment thingy - it doesn't want to let me attach anything the normal way - I've been playing with it off and on this morning. I use Safari - and a Mac, of course, so ............not sure what I'm doing wrong!

I do have a gmail account and think I'll try it with that just to see if I can do it!
