Instant Messenger users I have a question

[kantonburg]

When you direct connect to a buddy how come I can't paste a picture (print screen) in the window anymore? My friend can do it but I can't and we have the same version. I have the newest 4.1 and I "used" to be able to do it.

All I get now is that noname grey and yellow little file that appears in the box instead of the Print Screen picture.

Maybe I changed a setting? Any insight?

What file format is it?

 

[kantonburg]

well print screen usually pastes as a .bmp

again my buddy is using the same version and his works?

and those bitmaps are usully 2.5-3 megs so i doubt they would work.

 

[kantonburg]

has anyone tried this?

It works. I just did it on my g/f computer using my screen name. Yes its about a 3 meg .bmp file. just print screen/direct connect to someone (we are on a T1 line) and paste picture (right click and choose)

I don't know why it doesn't work on mine.

AIM has a nudity find feature.

If there is too much percentage skin tone, it is blocked.

Stop sending pRon Kantonburg!

ya ya....


But seriously I can't figure out why I can't just "paste picture" on my computer using the latest version but I "CAN" do it on my girlfriends computer using the same screen name.

I've check all the settings but it's still no can do.
