Hyperlink insertion in text

[H. John Kohl]

I have developed 12 slides to demonstrate the insertion of a hyperlink into the text. It was used to make this post. The link will come up in a slide show format.There are two options to slow down the slides. One - Click on the the slide and it will allow you to manually step through each slide as you desire.
Second - You can click on the Slideshow word at the top right corner which will allow you to select a slower speed at the bottom left. There are controls at the bottom to change speed or you can use the bottom left three ICONs to go back - stop/play - go forward. The background screen should be BLACK.
Please review it critically and provide your suggestions to improve it. Each slide is numbered one through twelve.
Reference the slide number and then the problem or confusion.
My intent is to help those that are uncomfortable posting hyperlinks with a step by step guidance/instruction.
If you are confused, then you are the one I would like to hear from. Please PM me where it happened. After 12 beers does not count.
Note-To make screen larger use control and Plus key. Control and minus reduces the size.

Hi John, looks like you are enjoying your new job as "Computer Geek"

In Slide 4 you need to identify that you went to the page you want to copy and selected (highlighted) and copied that URL so it could be pasted in slide 7. Suggest you identify which document you are working with (like you did with the first few slides) so people can identify which screen they are looking at.

Also I found the slide show goes way too quick.

But overall a very good job.

Edit removed bad link

I think I have fixed the speed issue or put that control into the hands of the viewer and band aid fixed your comment on the reference page. I will work on full clean up once I get more comments.
thanks rogue for taking the time to look at it. Nope not a GEEK, just trying to help make it easier for others.

Note=remembered to remove signature in next post.

Hi John, Thank you, Thank you, I have been trying to do this for a while and just could not get a grip on it. Your instructions made it soooo easy.

John, when you are ready with the final, maybe Glenn can add it to the first page by the
"Adding a photo to the forum" page.
Thanks for taking the time to put this together. I'm sure it will help, I know I will probably refer to it once in a while.

Was just thinking the same thing as I watchedn the Slide Show.

Great job John. This was one of the items I wanted to cover during the Computer Training. Glad you made a very helpful slide program.

This also works on photos. Just use the URL of the photo minus any IMG tags of course.

BTW-I can also assist anyone that still doesn't have it down pat.

BTW-I used the Photo Bucket link as posted by Rogue..

Using this link permits the viewer to look at the individual photos or the slide presentation.

John, thank you for making this simple and easy to use.

This is a great place to go fishing.

Glenn, When I try either of these links the page says "Page not found". am I doing something wrong???? Do I need to join photobucket to learn how to do this? I'm confused.....

There are two options. One - Click on the the slide and it will allow you to manually step through each slide as you desire.
Second - You can click on the Slideshow word at the top right corner which will allow you to select a slower speed at the bottom left.

Neither the link provided by Rogue or the link from the MOC Home Page (using the same link) work any longer. It seems Photobucket returns a "Page Not Found" error.

Can someone correct this?

Ditto Carl n Susan.

Ok think it is working. Remember to click on slideshow in the top right area so you can control it.
Remember to click on my original post (the first one of this topic) because that is the only one I control. The quote post in Phil's post does not work.

John,

It worked for me, thanks!

Actually John, your link has worked all along AFAIK. It is the link provided by Rogue and used by Glenn on the MOC Home Page that doesn't work. Phil's post was a just another exposure of Rogue's link.

I liked Rogue's technique where you can control the display. I haven't figured out how to do that with the original link. But if it is gone, it isn't that big of a deal.

Having a non-working link on the MOC Home Page is an image issue and a bigger deal.

[H. John Kohl]

That link quit working because I moved it to better organize MOCTRAINING. My post has the new link. You can get to Rogue's type of display by double clicking on the fast moving slide show or click on the word SLIDSHOW up in the right top corner.
This link takes you to the "ROUGE" path (just the storage area).

Works for me John. It could have been a head shed problem on my part. hehe! Dennis

Thanks John Kohl for the hyperlink info and instructions. All worked fine after my focus was focused!
