| I found a sample of handwriting and put a box around it but was not sure what to do after that ie how to upload it. Help please! |

| I think the trouble may be that the size of the image means that you then have to hunt round with the navigation bars, and will then find the instructions on another (bottom) corner of the screen. Another point to then watch out for is an occasional risk of saving in the wrong name; also of saving twice! |

| Thank you, I was able to crop the sample and upload, however when I tried to find the file in which it was saved (to make sure it was there) I could not find a handwriting samples file. Where should I look please? |

| From my limited skills I only know that when you bring up collector details (eg from a specimen by clicking on the collector's name, and then clicking on the name that comes up on the right of the screen; or by entering a collector's name in 'Specimens' search in the grey boxes) any handwriting samples for that person will appear. ie my assumption is you have to have a prior inkling who the person may be, or at least their initials, before accessing any handwriting sample. Many collectors don't have any of course. |
