I sooo..do not know what I'm doing and its becoming frustrating. I attempted to enter a challenge this evening without success even AFTER I read the basic instructions provided in the forum. Where I got lost was the instructions that directed me to "go back to the thread where you want to add the link..." Oh, did I mention I am also computer illiterate? So I need to be "baby walked" through the instructions. Thanks for any help. It will be greatly appreciated as I would really like to enter some of the challenges but...

Hi Jodi.....don't worry...everyone has trouble at first! Before you come to the challenge thread to link your card, and after you upload the card you made for that challenge into your gallery, click on your own card like you do when you want to comment on someone's card. Once you are seeing your card in the big view, not the thumbnail, look up to the top of your computer and in the address bar where we see the Splitcoast Gold *S* logo...next to that is a bunch of letters and words starting with http://. Its way up top....Okay, now put you curser in that address bar and click on it. It will highlight the whole address in blue! Once it is highlighted in blue, then click in the address bar again but this time right click on it with your mouse. When you RIGHT click a little drop down menu will pop up and it will give you the option to copy....click on copy....it seems like nothing has happend but you have copied it...

Okay, now go to the challenge thread and go to the bottom as if you are just making a comment in the challenge thread.....say what ever you want to say and then where ever you want your link, put your cursor there, right click, and that same little menu will drop down but this time you chose paste. That pastes your link in the thread. Then when you hit submit and send your comment to the thread, you can test your link, click on it and it should send you to your card......

Hope that helps girlfriend!!!
