I will help you if I can. It is better to keep the people with the specialised knowledge doing their thing - they have many requests for assistance and can better answer those questions if people are prepared with their charts. It is also better for each individual to know how to get and to post his or her own chart - you will be better acquainted with your own chart, and you will retain ownership of the chart in your threads. If I keep posting people's charts for them, and ever need to delete a few or close my account, your charts will disappear.
So here goes... please try the steps below and reply to this thread, or create a topic with "AVOCADOSANDWICH" in the subject line (I, too, have a billion things on the go and would appreciate if people could make it easier for me to help them!). If you identify a problem with the directions above, please let me know - I ran through it while I was writing it out and hopefully didn't miss a critical step!
HOW TO GET YOUR CHART
1. Go to www.astro.com. You can create a free account or enter your birth data as a guest, however, creating an account will allow you to save your information – great for trying the different charts both for yourself and for others in your life. If you don’t know the exact time of your birth, do your best to find out – it *is* important.
2. Go to “Free Horoscopes” and then to “Extended Chart Selection”
3. “Natal Chart Wheel” is the default, but you will need to go to “House System” (under “Otions” and use the drop-down to change to “equal”
4. Click on “Click here to show the Chart”, then click on the chart which will appear.
5. Right-click and save the chart to your desktop
HOW TO UPLOAD YOUR CHART
1. Create a free account at www.photobucket.com
2. Select “Upload Now” which will bring up “Select Photos and Videos”
3. Navigate to your desktop and select
4. On right, click “Save and continue to my album”
5. When you hover the mouse pointer over the chart, you will see that a box appears with a few options. If you need to edit out your name or anything else you don’t feel comfortable sharing on the boards, “edit” is in the top band of options. Select “edit” which opens your chart and provides editing options. Go to the tab “Decorate” and you will see a number of icons, one of which is an eraser. Erase what you need to, and click “Replace original.”
6. Saving should take you to a new screen where you can see your chart and to the right, a bank of options to “Share this photo.” Click on the IMG code, which will flash and let you know that you’ve copied the link.
7. Go to your thread, open a new post and paste your link
8. Don’t move or delete your chart from Photobucket, because the link only goes to where the chart was saved!
