Pretty simple; however you should do something similiar for resizing images. Thats where most people have troubles. I'm too lazy to do it now:p

I have a tower gateway computer and there are some buttons on the top. When I push one of them a really cool coffee cup holder comes out. When I push the button again, it goes back in to the computer. so here is the problem, I put a 128oz big gulp on the drink holder and it broke and spilled my drink and now it make a whir whir whir sound when I try to turn it on. Any ideas? I don't think the coffee cup holder can be repaired and I could not find any on ebay, do you know where to buy them?

Thanks,
fish













Just kidding, welcome to the site Whisk! :D :D :D

leave it to thermaltake to build a FULL SIZED cup holder.. now where is the laptop version... mine is starting to get STICKY!!!!! need to replace with an
un STICKY one.. hint hint greg....

oh and one oher thing.... for the copy and paste functions you can hilight and then press Ctrl+C to copy and Ctrl+V to paste... saves right clicking.. handy for laptop users cause every time I think about touching my touchpad it deletes everything just typed...

I found another site www.tinypic.com (http://www.tinypic.com) that hosts and resizes the pictures in 1 shot. Real easy just hit "Browse", find your picture double click it, then hit "Host" then copy and paste the url in the http://tinypic.com/iopwqw.gif box and your done. This method saves server space and also displays a full size picture instead of a thumbnail

try this go to www.tinypic.com (http://www.tinypic.com/) and hit the browse button and find the pic in your computer. double click your pic then hit the host button. just below that you'll find a link address that will appear. right click and choose copy to copy that link address. now go to a thread that you want to put the picture in and hit the http://tinypic.com/ivllr9.gificon and right click in the text area of the box that appeared and paste the link address you copied and hit ok.
Or you can copy the address with the http://tinypic.com/ivludw.gif
