I put a brief blurb about "contact me to order or host" with my info. I worded it better. :)

There should be a "browse" button next to the field for the file name. Click that button and it will open a windows explorer-like button that will allow you to navigate your computer to find it.

I found the file listed on my computer to select and upload it, but it's not accepting my selection of that file.
 
hmm... that's weird. I don't know what could be causing that.

Okay, so I'm going to join Joy's service so I can see these HWC postcards...right? Because of the changes she had to do, it's not free to see her fliers and such, correct?

It's still free... you just have to register. The site has different levels of membership. Everyone gets access to the flyers. Paid members also get the newsletters and email blasts.
 
My computer was acting up yesterday so I had to shut everything down. (I thought having a Mac meant things like this wouldn't happen :rolleyes:) When I did, it said it was still downloading the HWC postcard! So I stopped the process because I just had to shut down the computer. Now today I'm trying to download it again. It keeps changing the time log of how long is remaining for it to download. I just looked at it again and it says it's going to be 7 hours! Is there something wrong with my computer or did it take everyone else that long to download. I mean, this computer is not even 1 yr. old. It's a very fast, huge memory, etc. iMac. I'm so frustrated!
 
I had a problem downloading it several times, but the issue was on the server side, not my computer.
 
Sooo good to know! Thanks! I've been worrying something is wrong on my end. I just came back from church and because the computer was idle for a while, it went to a sleep type mode, so the download got interrupted. So here we go again with a huge estimate of download time.
 
Oh I give up! It says it'll take 2 days to download! :eek: :cry: What on earth is going on! :confused:

Not sure... I just downloaded it again and it took 12 seconds. I'm on fiber optic broadband.

Are you having trouble with any other downloads?
 
Oh hi Joy! You're on! I just sent you an e-mail. :blushing: I'm going to play around and see if I can download other files. Do you think it's because I don't have photoshop or whatever it was?
 
I'm able to download other files from CS super fast, just barely a second.
 
I'm trying to download it again from TT. The status bar started saying it was going really fast, but the time estimate keeps growing as the KB/sec keeps getting slower and slower (right now it says 4.7KB/sec). And steadily and steadily slower still...

It's loaded on the site now, so you can download it from there.
 
Joy, you're wonderful! Thanks for all your help!Just so everyone knows, Joy compressed the file as a Photoshop PDF file so it's
smaller, and it downloaded in seconds! :)
