Hi Autumn, thank you for doing this...but some of us are dumber than others and I can't even find a tool button. I downloaded from your link, made account like it asked, opened it and it talks about traffic. I looked everywhere for a tool button to continue, but I think some of us may need a few more pictures, meaning me lol, thank you for any help you can give on this....Ill check back in a bit and see of you seen and responded, again thank you for putting your time into doing this for the rest of us.

I figured out that you meant, not tool on fiddler but on our computer, and I dont know which one. I keep getting administrative tool and when I click on it there is a long line of different ones. I have clicked on a few and it confuses me so if you or someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'm not seeing this part " make sure that you have the "Maintain Aspect Ratio" box unmarked." where do I find that at? :?:

I think where you talking about this is when your resizing the the pic to 390 by 260 unmark the box that keeps the ratio. Little box to the left bottom of where you put sizes in

Does this tutorial take into account the new "Fiddler" upgrade? If it does...I'm lost! :wailing:

I don't want to be a buzzkill, but in the effort to potentially save people money - I and others see from a technological standpoint why there is a decent chance this won't work anymore on HTML5. It may, but it may not. It likely requires specific programming that I doubt would be in the first release. Just a warning before people regret spending coins on this (running out and buying 50 boards, like I did) that may be useless for this application in a couple weeks.

If we CAN do it, figuring it out will be one of the first things I do, and I'll post instructions if I have time.

Used to be you could just draw on it. Oh for those days! I hope you guys at Zynga make that option available again. I just want to scrawl 6 simple characters for pity's sake. I'm not doing all that crud just for six characters. Simplicity never hurt anyone and it helped many. I'll wait til there is both the simple AND complex option available befor I put my sign up. I can wait.

Thank you sooooo much for this! :heart:

I've been wanting to learn how to use Fiddler for PB arts for the longest time!

Watched some videos from Youtube as well but only understood your instructions clearly. It is complete yet short and direct at the same time.

You are the best! May you always have a great day :hug:

Anyone have an update on how to do this? The program has changed and I'm too stupid to figure it out!

[quote="AutumnHindley xo (187518351)
Step 13: Open up a paintboard with Fiddler open so it tracks that you opened it! It'll look like this on Fiddler:

, drag that over to the "Add Rule" section.
Step 14: Now this part is IMPORTANT, we will be uploading our photo now!

Make sure you erase everything after the .PNG part and "EXACT:" so it looks like mine.
Step 15: Check the "Enable Rules" Box and nothing else and then go back to Yoworld and open your paintboard, your image should load onto it.. once you see that it is on there, go back to Fiddler and uncheck the "Enable Rules" box and close Fiddler.
Step 16: Reopen your paintboard and close it, and now people can see it!
Once you did ALL those steps, you are done! Congratulations, you made your first board!

[/quote]

Is this still the way to do it? Because I'm stuck at step 13. I can't seem to find a line in Fiddler that ends with paint_board. There's several with other numbers/letters after paint_board. How do I know which one it is?...The most recent I would imagine...correct??? And then, the second line in the picture in step 14 says C:\Users\Autumn\Desktop.....like, is that in Fiddler, or where do I find that?.....Any help would be immensely appreciated.!

There is now a Chrome extension that's much easier to use. I don't know if anyone has been bothering with this since then. It's called "YoWorld Art". Install that.

1. Resize pictures to 390x260
2. Post your image on online somewhere. (Post on Imgur, right-click and select "Open Image in New Tab". Copy that link.)
3. Open YoWorld Art extension.
4. Paste your picture link into the text box.
5. Enable the redirect option at the top.
6. Click the "Set new image" button.
7. Save your paint board on YoWorld.
8. Turn off the enable redirect option at the top.
9. Open and re-save the paint board on YoWorld.

The last two are very important. If you don't do that on any image(s), the next time you repeat steps 4-6, those images will change to whatever you just pasted in.

It seems to be, but I find the new extension much easier to use. You can knock out several of the same piece in no time at all.
