Magnus Maximus’s Imperial Imagination Emporium

[Magnus Maximus]

Hey everyone, I’m somewhat new here, but I’ve been making use of HeroMachine for months. Once I figure out how to post something, I’ll let you judge whether or not I’m worthy of acceptance. Thanks! Great to be here!

Welcome to the forum, go to the last post in this thread here http://www.heromachine.com/forum/blog-forum-or-other-web-site-issues/posting-pictures/#p1469 and that will help you post pictures.

Hi Magnus! Welcome to the forums
There are two stages to posting an image: getting it off HeroMachine onto your computer, then getting it from your computer onto here. Which bit are you having trouble with? (If it’s the second one, have a look at the link Kaldath just posted.)

[Magnus Maximus]

I’m just not good with computers in general, but I think it may be part of both, actually.

[Kaylin88100]

OK Magnus, which HeroMachine version are you using? HM3 Alpha or another one?

[Magnus Maximus]

By the way, I love the creations that both of you do! Fantastic job!

[Kaylin88100]

Thanks Magnus
I’d love to see your creations, which means we need to get them on here, right? So, could you answer my question please: What version of HeroMachine are you using? Until I know that I can’t help you. OK?

[FRM]

well said, Kaylin88100.

[Magnus Maximus]

I use HM3 Alpha.

[Kaldath]

To get Images off of Heromachine 3 onto your computer you can either take a screen shoot ( that is the method I prefer myself ) and if you tell me your operating system I can tell you how to do that.

Or

You can use the export feature of Heromachine istelf.

First Click the export button

Next Select your layout, and weather you want to save it as a png or jpg .. I would suggest using one of the widescreen layouts and save as png

then Click the export button on the bottom of the menu pictured above.

Sorry for the late welcome, but welcome to the forums and I’m looking forward to see your work. Looks like Kaldath has you headed in the right direction.

[Magnus Maximus]

I don’t know what happened! I was just saving a character when all of a sudden, my ENTIRE network of saved characters, months of work, just VANISHED. All of my characters, all the way from DECEMBER, are GONE! Has this EVER happened before? WHAT DO I DO???????

[Myro]

Yeah, it happens. Sometimes it just happens at random if you’re using Internet Explorer. It happened to me while I was using Firefox and erased my cookies. As for what you can do, I’m sorry but there really isn’t anything. My suggestion is to keep text backups of all your creations from now on, so that if it happens again, you can text load your characters. Also backing up your hard drive regularly can give you a bit of security on this.

[Magnus Maximus]

Thanks a lot. You guys have been so helpful! So, due to this major setback, it will probably be a while before I can start posting my work. But, once again, thank you for all your help and for making me feel welcome!

Sorry to hear about your setback.It sucks that everything you made got wiped, while you are busy recreating ( which can be fun in itself as I tend to redesign almost ALL of my characters repeatedly ) why not pop on up to the Pub section and join in the fun of the word games we have going on ( Word Association Game and Comic Book Character Name Game ), or to the writers section for the one word game going on there ( Word by Word )
