Not sure how silly this question might be... so please bear with me!

I've been trying to find related content in the forums and support, but couldn't, so here's my question:

I'm planning on posting a few Photoshop tutorial posts for my friends, who have asked me about how to use the program. I will be using screenshots to help them find the different tools. Is there anything I need to be aware of in terms of copyright and similar? I was planning on mentioning that the screenshots have been taken from Photoshop, which is the property of Adobe, etc. but I'm not sure if there are any other details to consider, and I don't want to get into trouble!

It would be great if you could give me some guidance, or direct me to the relevant thread if there's one already.

Thanks everyone!

marz

Thanks for your encourage. I found "changing format" one of the most easiest thing to do. I just uploaded it and asked the servers to change the format of it for me which they did in a millisecond.

I don't have Paint on my computer, though at work we do. Other people have used it, though I think it was for personal projects so I haven't paid attention, and it's been so many years since I used it I wasn't sure to recommend it. Good to know.

You are not ignorant: we all started learning somewhere near the infant stage and progressed from there. You are discovering how to do lots of things…

But iphonist is an example of one who can't see them. As I said, not an issue for wp.com forums.

The link I gave, to be honest, the only one I've tried is Gimp for online photo editing and found it difficult: a big learning curve. And you are right: this is also not a wp.com issue. But lots of times people do want to post screenshots in order to show specific questions. So this seems a legitimate topic to discuss here.

Ah ... displaying special characters ... confusing stuff here. This is not blogging issue per say ie. how to convert images from one format to another is a computer skills issue. The good news is that there are free online image editing programs online that can be used to do this as well as free desk top programs too. :)

Apparently there are some problems with some browsers displaying special characters, including hers. I'm trying to track down a solution.

http://www.online-utility.org/image_converter.jsp

Gimp is not too bad for simple and does have some automatic features that work most of the time (sometimes the auto color balance gives strange results) - as you move up from real simple Gimp can be a bit difficult - I use it but sometimes have problems figuring out some of the features - I do only simple things with it, but it is very powerful.

In order to add to your media library, you must use an image editing program like PhotoShop, Elements, or others like Gimp, which is free online (but a bit difficult to use).

Or try one of these: http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=image+editing+software+free&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

The file must be saved as timethief said:
