Topic Wiki

This is the thread where you can ask any random question you have. Feel free to ask even the most basic questions that you otherwise might be embarrassed to ask. This is the thread for beginners, so veterans here will treat you nicely. Ask a beginner's Q in some other threads and no guarantee of that same treatment. ;)
People here want to help, so just have some patience, follow the tips below and hopefully someone will help you when they have a chance.

If you looking for a particular thread you once saw and can't find it, this is not the place to ask. Check out Help Me Find It and ask there.

How to ask a question in this thread:
Click the blue reply button at the top or bottom of the page, type your question, and click post!

Some helpful tips for eliciting answers from other members:
- Keep your question short and precise. No one wants to read a megillah.
- The more questions you ask in one post, the less likely any will be answered. People are willing to answer a question or two, but if you ask all the questions that apply to your particular issue, you're expecting to be spoonfed. Members don't like holding out the spoon, so ask accordingly.

Can you transfer directly from Chase checking to Charles Schwab checking (JP Morgan Chase).
Add an external account on your chase account.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I used canvas people. Always had pretty good deals, Or free and just pay shipping.
But many of the companies always run sales. You can usually get around $10 for 10x12 size.

What type of operating system are you looking for?
Also, what kind of editing are you talking about, basic (instagram style, maybe even a bit better) or hare core professional editing, like photoshop / lightroom?

That is an option but was wondering if the other could be done. Called Schwab and the answer was no. They have to be added to the account.

Install (through the Chrome Web Store)
It's called Pixlr, there's the editor version, but that's like photoshop (online), but there's also one (I don't rember which version it is) but it's just like the app - [url]https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details%3Fid%3Dcom.pixlr.express%26hl%3Den%26referrer%3Dutm_source%253Dgoogle%2526utm_medium%253Dorganic%2526utm_term%253Dpixlr%26pcampaignid%3DAPPU_1_FZzlV_2aK9jwgAbf6YfwBQ&ved=0ahUKEwi9-aiHtabPAhVYOMAKHd_0AV4Q5YQBCBswAA&usg=AFQjCNGfjxN3qHQenzDvJAbiwh-df0WQ9g&sig2=9VV6CUYWn16RANrEiHQz6w/[url]

Paint!
Thanx. Originally I thought it lowers the resolution, as the size of the pic was saving smaller, but after checking properties it shows the same resolution. So thanx

I have found that many of them are compatible with 120-240. Did you check if they are?
