I would like to share some free valentine brushes from a web site that I got in the e mail today. I thought you could highlight the address and copy and then paste into my post. At least I was able to do that before I got my new computer. Did Vista change how I can do that? There are lots of fun brushes and layer styles and patterns that some of you may like. If I can figure out how to post the link to the site.

Tina , sorry i cant help i dont have Vista, seems there are a few things different. My sis in chicago is having a few issues with pictures and Vista and i cant do a darn thing to help her either being in Mo. There are alot of Vista members out there though and i am sure they will have an answer for you.

Tina,
It should be exactly as on an XP machine; copy the URL and paste it into the reply:

the problem is this I can find the URL that I want and can highlight it but when I go to copy the copy option is grayed out and I can not copy. I was able to do this before with XP but not vista.

When you right-click on the URL it will highlight and you should get a drop down menu with the Copy being one of the choices. Else, try to highlight the URL and hit CTRL-C.

I wonder why the short cut works and the copy option is not a choice or is grayed out from the drop down menu? any ideas on that one?

I have Vista 64 Home Premium and I have no problem right clicking on the url in the address bar to copy it. Perhaps it is a browser issue. I am using Firefox. What browser are you using?

You can try to restart your browser and/or reboot the computer.

I have internet explorer . I have restarted and shutdown and restarted and still does not work. As long as I can do it with the short cut I should be happy.
