The Gorn Supremacy; stock AW1Steve v. geofflambert

[Xargun]

ORIGINAL: Zorch

There was an 80s TV sitcom called 'Bosom Buddies', which would have been forgotten but for the presence of an unknown actor named Hanks.

I remember watching that on tv..

I know what's causing the delay. The Gorn has enlisted the aid of LoLbertarian Ron Paul to help, right after he proves that our currency issuing government needs to borrow its own dollars from China to prevent us from going broke!

We don't need the thinly veiled 'drive by' political ramblings on this (or any other) thread, IronWarrior. That's a good way to get 'em locked up. [:-]

[AW1Steve]

OK, the game's afoot! (As opposed to it's usual crawl!) [:D][:D]
If one of you fine gentleman (or even those nasty rotten creeps![:D] [:D]) would review with me how to do screen captures , I'll try to grab some from the 1st real turn. [:)][:)]

[geofflambert]

I'm having some difficulty. Even though the file he sent me appears to be a .pws file when I try and get it it wants to be an .html file. I'm getting old, I'm probably doing something stupid. This is much higher priority than someone telling Steve how to do screenshots with MSPaint. Help!!!!

[Lecivius]

It does not appear as if you are saving the .pws, but rather the AOL page [&:]

[geofflambert]

He resent it to me, same problem.

[AW1Steve]

I sent it to my other email, no problem. Shall I send it to someone else?

[geofflambert]

It's probably something wrong with AOL. Can these things be sent by PM? Maybe his service Yahoo is screwing it up?

You are trying to save the email itself, not the attachment. Try clicking on the .pws name and dragging it to your desktop..

I'm not having ANY problem with Hotmail, or drop box. Gee, let me think?[&:][&:]

I have Outlook (HTML), Yahoo & Gmail available if you want to send it to me? I can try it on all 3 platforms.

[geofflambert]

When I right click on the file (in the e-mail) that happens when I try left clicking on it I get this:

[geofflambert]

Hurry! I'm losing brain cells every minute.

[Lecivius]

If you left click it is trying to open a .pws. Is there an option within AOL to Save File? Here is a picture of what a file attached looks like in Gmail. The down arrow is the Download option...

[Lecivius]

Here it is in Yahoo...

[geofflambert]

I find that the .pws file was going into my download folder even though I gave no such instructions and my default is Desktop. Anyways I copied it from there to the game save folder (replacing the earlier version). I expect it will work now. Will come back and scream bloody murder if it doesn't. [:D]

[Lecivius]

I can't show an Outlook screenshot, once again I can't DL pics to this forum...

That's a quirk of Win10. I have not played with it enough to know how to change that...yet [;)]

That should be a setting in IE or Edge to change the default download location. Just don't ask me where it is... they change that stuff every version.
