I had no problems using my credit card to buy & download it.. I wasn’t required to use PayPal.
I did get a weird pop-up asking me to chose a security signature. There weren’t any choices in the box to choose from, so I just clicked OK. It proceeded past that point and continued the checkout process with problems.
The checkout was pretty quick - took only as long as it took me to type in the details (address, CC number, etc).
The download process was pretty quick, too. Took maybe 5 seconds to d/l the file to my computer.
sorry - TYPO - that should have said, “It proceeded past that point and continued the checkout process with NO problems.”
EEEK!!! I LOVE THIS! Must finish my errands so I can play with it!
I tweeted it.
That’s a neatimage! I wish I knew ho to resize them. I’m gonna think hard on this one.
I did not see the Paypal prompt- the credit card info is big and Paypal is small below it- I finally did find it and download went fine.
When I download, it goes into a different file than when I can choose where to download digital images, so I had to find that file (but since I have done it before, I knew to check in my ‘download’ file).
I opened up Word. I clicked on insert on the top row which gave me a drop down choice-insert from a file- I go to the file where the file downloaded and the Count Image shows up on the screen. (I also go in and make the margins small like 1/4″ in the Word document first). When the image appears- and this one is very large on the page, click anywhere on the picture and little boxes appear on all corners and 12-3-6-9 areas.
Click on one of the corner boxes (top or bottom does not matter- I use bottom Rt so I can watch the ruler on the side- the image will get smaller or larger proportionally if you use the corner box). Move the corner box towards the center of the image and this will downsize it- watch the ruler on the sidebar until the image gets to the size you want it to be. Click Save image as and give your file a name with the dimensions you saved it as- you can make multiple files with mult sizes……. eg FCDcountdigital3×4
If you want to print mult images, click on the resized image and click copy, move to another area on page and rt click and hit paste. An additional image will show up on the page.
Print the image(s).
