You have to get a username and password from adobe user forums and open a new newsaccount for adobeforums.com in OE.

Cats,

You need to create a new account in Outlook Express, using the username / password you are using right now in the web forum.

I’ll assume you have OE 6.0 for Windows XP. If not, perhaps someone can tweak this procedure for you as I don’t have access to anything else. Short procedure :

Tools / Account / News tab
Add / News…
Supply the return address you’d like to use (in my case, I chose hotmail to prevent spamming).
For the news server, enter : adobeforums.com

The rest is easy, follow the on-screen instructions.

Then, once setup is complete, you’ll have a new folder in OE. Select the newsgroups that interests you, obviously, this one 🙂

If you need more help, write again!

First off you have to log onto the forum on the web and then set an account up.

Then in Outlook Express click on Tools > Accounts. Next click on Add and select News and follow the prompts. When it prompts you for a server name use "adobeforums.com" you now have access set up. When you log on it should ask you for you log on name and password with the option of making it permanent do that and you and log on and post to the forum.

The Digital Paint group for those who like creating *paintings* from photos on their computer. No nude photos allowed, it is G rated group 🙂 People may use any software to create their paintings. File size up to 200 kb. Also suggest how the paint effect was created, what filters used etc.
