I have two questions...
 
I have attempted to copy and print a picture of a quilt on this board without success. Went to the library and they could not do it either. Is this due to copyright laws? My second question is, can I print out a copy of my list of "Favorites" and if so how do I go about it? Appreciate any help you can give me.

I copy pictures of quilts I see on this board all the time to keep for inspiration and ideas. I don't know why you can't copy.

Kath, can you tell me how you copy, maybe I'm doing something wrong? Thanks, Lucy

I just tried to copy and paste a picture to a Word doc. and it wouldn't let me either.

Lucy, I hover the mouse over the picture and right click. Then I click the copy option. I then open a word doc and paste the picture on a word doc. I file this word doc in My Documents. I have a 180 page word doc with pictures of quilts I like on my desktop so I can add to it quickly.

Thanks Kath, I will certainly try copying tomorrow. Its almost 9:00 p.m. here now and I have been awake since 2:45 a.m. today. I awakened and just could not get back to sleep so I got up and cleaned the house. I had planned to anyway, but not as early as I did. I will let you know how I make out on the copying. Thanks so much for your help, one can always count on the members on this forum.

Good luck, Linda, and get to bed.

I save photos all the time. I hover over the photo, click "save photo to" go to my cd drive and save the photo. Hope these instructions help you. they might not be correct, and will give you something to try. good luck.

I haven't found any picture on this board that I can't save. The easiest way is to pin it to Pinterest. Every pic I want to save I find online I Pin it. They are all there in one spot and doesn't take up space on my computer.

I right click my mouse on the picture, then the little menu shows Print Picture and i click on that. works well.
also you may have a Print Screen button on the top of your keyboard. you can use that key and then go into your Word document and click paste. the picture should show up. it may be smaller though. then print the page from there.
good luck.
