Problems sharing images

[Harrierborn52]

My share option is not working in my gallery, and every other method of showing an image that I've tried has not worked. I can't put anything I make in the Makers or cloloring books in the forums. Please help!

I'm sorry, I need a little more info to figure out the problem. Do you know what your browser and flash player are?

Does the share button pop up a menu?

[Harrierborn52]

Browser is google or bing, flash I think is Adobe or Java(or both), and the share button does pull up a menu, but I can't copy-paste from it.

Could you visit this page and paste what it tells you into a post?

Make sure you don't post the IP adress part of it

So you are selecting all the text and then right clicking and hitting "copy"? Is the copy function working fine for you everywhere else?

[Harrierborn52]

I try that method, yes, but it won't let me actually copy it. I do use that everywhere else, and it always works.

Hmmm... the problem might be in copying from a flash file, though I don't know why it would make a difference. Boo is doing some searching to see if he can think of anything else to look into.

Does the text "select" for you? It should highlight black or something like that if it is selected.

[Harrierborn52]

Yes, it selects, but the copy option won't light up so I cna use it, though this is the only time that happens.

[Emerald]

If you select the text and then hit "Ctrl+c" (the keyboard shortcut), does that work?

[Harrierborn52]

I'll try.

EDIT: It worked. I didn't know about the keyboard shortcut, thanks.

Sweet, I wish we could figure out how to fix that one... but it will be hard if we can't replicate it. At least you can share now
