The start menu is the menu that pops up when you click on the symbol/button in the menu bar at the bottom left corner of your screen.


In this menu will be an item called 'all programs' click on this and you'll get a folder list. Within this folder list will be one called 'accessories', click on this and you'll get a list of the programs, one of which will be 'paint'.


Once you have pressed the prt scr button then open the paint application and go directly to 'paste' in the edit menu.


Save the file somewhere where you can find it again.


Then come on here, start a new post, click on 'attach a file or photo', browse to the location and select it, then click on attach.


Bob's your uncle.

ooooh just clicked onto it...and amongst all the pretty pictures there is one of an artist's palette...i.e. paint? Is that what you mean? When I click onto that I get a BIG box with pretty colours and shapes up top. But the irritations are still here.

Yes, that is paint! Now you might have to press the prtscrn button again to capture your screen. Once you've done this, go back to paint again and click ctrl+v - this should paste the screen capture into the big box. If it does, save it as a file somewhere by pressing ctrl+s. Then if it doesn't need any further cropping you can upload it to the forum.

Yeh it is getting a bit convoluted, if you don't have any luck uploading your screenshot LM maybe you should just force quit the Help and Support window that is obscuring your screen and get rid of the damn thing??? If you want to do that press ctrl+alt+delete which will bring up the task manager. In the 'Applications' tab Choose Help & Support then click 'End Task'. If you don;t see it there, hop over to the 'Processes' tab and see if you can find it there. If you can, select it and click 'end Process'. If you've no idea what the feck is going on, then enjoy your dinner?

      Latest One Dulwich update

      By Rockets · Posted

      But you don't think the same protection should be afforded to those on the anti-LTN side...? Given the witch hunt some are be conducting to unearth which local residents are involved (see numerous examples on this forum), given the vandalism of the anti-LTN signs and interference with cars, labelling of anyone who opposes as some sort of petrol-head facist and given even Anna Goodman's tearing down of an anti-LTN poster you still think you only want anonimyity for those on one side of the argument? Does that not seem slightly hypocritical...it's why your first post on this issue entertained so many of us - it seemed ever so one-sided and summed up the challenges anyone who opposes the measures has to fight?

      Rubie - Lost Cat

      By lindabd · Posted

      Hello again, Rubie, my cat, is still missing. He has been gone since 18th April.  Rubie is black and white, with black ears, a splendid white moustache, white front paws, and mostly white back legs.  Please check your sheds etc as he may be trapped, he’s a curious little thing.  I would really appreciate any help and suggestions. Thank you.

      There is no equivalence between One Dulwich purporting to be a local organisation speaking for local people, and actually properly constituted organisations such as The Dulwich Society. A 3 -second google search reveals the openly published names of the trustees of Dulwich Society, so I can make my own mind up as to whether these individuals are coming at local issues with a particular slant. I can read minutes of their meetings online, and whilst I might not agree with their every position, I can have confidence that they are an open and fundamentally democratic institution. There is absolutely nothing similar in terms of publicly accountable information to be found about One Dulwich - no idea of who is behind it, who pays for it ( it is clearly expensive), and on what basis they make their decisions.  Given the Police involvement in the intimidation of people with a public pro-LTN view ( for which there is no equivalence in terms of severity of any incident for those with an anti-LTN point of view), I can fully understand why, for Dulwich Society's traffic sub- committee only, they want a bit of online anonymity. I also find it slightly disturbing that when The Dulwich Society current leadership asked the 'grouping' pushing for changes within it for a meeting to discuss their concerns, they refused it. Given the recent experiences of organisations such as The National Trust, the question can be asked - is something similar going on here?
