Tell me how to screen cap and I will. But for now....move the picture with any area of black to the top of the screen it will reveal what seems like a face at the top.

on your keyboard there should be a button that says "Print Scrn" or some variation of that at the top along with the F1-12 keys. This is on a pc, by the way, I dunno if it's the same on a Mac.

If that doesn't work (and you're using a PC) hit the button that's up there with your "Home" and "end" and such. Should be marked "Scrn Prt" or something like that.

Then open Paint and do a "Ctrl+V" and paste it in there. You can crop it as needed. Save that and post what you get.

I can't reproduce what you did and I've been flinging photos around that site like frisbees. Very Happy

And while I'm on that site, let me note that the photo ticking seems to have changed. The "Two Women" photo seems to tick now and the "Party Picture" doesn't. At least it hasn't for me this evening.

Do you have a video program running in the background? That causes some odd things.

We don't need all that Rhap.

Alex, here's how I do it. Press the prt scrn key (above the arrow keys), open a new bitmap image with paint. Paste the image there. Post it here, or use photobucket.com to upload it to the web and THEN post it here.

I'm pretty sure that's just a problem with your flash or browser. Does it look like another browser tab or another window you have open behind your browser?

I know virtually nothing about Flash programming, but I've done a bit with a few other languages in the past. Anyway, that being said, does anyone think it's possible that the "ticking" of the photos is a result of the coding of the flash in relation to the fact that you can drag the photos around?

For example, if you click, quickly drag, and then release a photo, it continues to move after you let go of it. Could the ticking be a result of the fact that the coding doesn't allow for the pictures to ever come to a full and "true" stop? I've seen this effect in video games, for example, especially physics based games. The programming of friction often times isn't true to life, and while an object such as a ball might slow down due to friction, it will never stop moving.

This "ticking" we observe might be a result of this same type of thing going on - the pictures slow down and almost stop, but the programming doesn't properly execute a full stop of the image, and it continues to move just a bit for an indefinite amount of time. This would seem to be supported by the fact that, as far as I can tell, the pictures don't start ticking until you try and move them.

Again, I'm not all that programming savvy, but I could see this being the reason for the ticking.

ETA: Just further evidence to support this theory, the pictures seem to only tick/rotate in the same direction (clockwise/counterclockwise) that you "throw" them in.

It's possible, but I'm not sure.

About ten minutes ago, I put both photos on end "facing" each other - party pic on the left side and two women on the right so there was an empty strip between them.

The party pic hasn't moved a millimeter. The two women pic has rotated counterclockwise by roughly 35 degrees.
