UPDATE: 7/18/2003 A NEW TRANSLOADER HAS BEEN IN PLACE ONSITE. THIS PAGE WAS WRITTEN GIVING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OLD TRANSLOADER. THIS INFORMATION STILL APPLIES TO TRANSLOADING HOWEVER THESE ITEMS MAY APPEAR IN A DIFFERENT ORDER OR BE LABELED SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON WHAT TRANSLOADER YOU USE.

I HAVE RECEIVED MANY EMAILS FROM FELLOW WEBTVERS ASKING ME FOR INFO ON HOW TO TRANSLOAD. WELL HERE IS A TUTORIAL ON HOW.

THE FIRST THING YOU NEED TO ENTER INTO THE TRANSLOADER IS THE URL. IF YOU CAME DIRECTLY FROM THE IMAGE YOU NEED TO TRANSLOAD IT WILL BE SHOWN IN THE URL WINDOW. IF IT IS NOT, VIEW THE IMAGE AND PRESS GOTO ON YOUR KEYBOARD. CLICK ON SHOW CURRENT. IF ITS A MIDI CLICK ON SHOW LAST. THE URL WILL BE SHOWN IN THE GOTO WINDOW. PRESS CMD PLUS A AT THE SAME TIME TO HIGHLGHT THE URL NOW PRESS CMD PLUS C AT THE SAME TIME YOU WILL HERE A FUNNY NOISE TELLING YOU THE URL IS IN MEMORY. NOW RETURN TO THE TRANSLOADER AND AND DELETE WHATEVER IS IN THE URL AND PRESS CMD PLUS V AT THE SAME TIME. PRESTO YOUR URL IS IN THE TRANSLOADER WINDOW. (TIP) YOU WILL FIND THAT IF YOU VIEW THE IMAGE AND GO DIRECTLY TO THE TRANSLOADER THE URL WILL ALREADY BE IN THE URL WINDOW.

NEXT WINDOW WILL ASK YOU FOR THE FTP SERVER. LETS SUPPOSE YOUR SERVER IS TRIPOD. YOU WILL ENTER ftp.tripod.com INTO THIS WINDOW. IF YOUR SERVER IS GEOCITIES YOU WILL ENTER ftp.geocities.com GOT IT !!!!

OK THE NEXT ITEM IT WILL ASK YOU FOR IS TO ENTER YOUR USER NAME. IT MEANS YOUR ACCOUNT NAME AT TRIPOD OR GEOCITIES OR OTHER SERVER. ENTER YOUR ACCOUNT NAME

THE NEXT WINDOW WILL ASK YOU FOR YOUR PASSWORD. AGAIN ENTER YOUR TRIPOD OR GEOCITIES PASSWORD INTO THE WINDOW.

NOW IT WILL ASK YOU FOR A SUBDIRECTORY TO PLACE THE TRANSLOADED FILE INTO. IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DONE SO GO TO YOUR SERVER AND CREATE A DIRECTORY AND NAME IT IMAGES. THAT IS THE NAME OF YOUR SUBDIRECTORY NOW TYPE THIS INTO THE TRANSLOADER.

THE LAST ITEM YOU NEED TO FILL OUT IS REMAME . LETS SAY YOU ARE TRANSLOADING A PHOTO OF AN APPLE THEN YOU WOULD NAME IT APPLE.GIF NOTICE THE FIE EXTENSION AT THE END OF THE URL NOTE IF IT IS JPG OR GIF . BE SURE TO USE THE SAME FILE EXTENSION AND REMEMBER THE PERIOD BEFORE THE GIF OR JPG APPLE.GIF ALSO NO SPACES IN THE NAME ARE ALLOWED.
