[stylist] Making Downloadable links

[Applebutter Hill]

Hi Jim,
Thank you! I can't believe this actually works! I was looking at some really
complicated code when I Googled it. The odd thing is that I had to use the
right-click button on the NumPad -- not sure what it really is. The
application key, which opens a context menu, didn't work, but the context
menu that showed up when I used the right-click had a "Save picture as..."
option.
You rock!
Donna

Hi Donna,
The link to the picture is correct. All you need to do is to instruct your
audience to right click the picture and pick Save As. If they use Internet
Explorer, the wording on the menu reads "Save as picture." I forget wording
for Firefox and Chrome, and other browsers. I don't know how to do this on a
smart phone.

Thanks.

Jim

Hi Jim,
When I did reply all, it just went to the list. Robert sent me your address
off-list. The members addresses used to be displayed for me, but all I get
now is the beginning including on my own. I must have changed something when
I re installed Outlook earlier this month.

Anyway, I really appreciate your willingness to help me with making a
downloadable link for my book cover.

I bought a domain from WordPress.com:


http://DonnaWHill.com

Anyway, I used their media e-mail upload option to upload the book cover as
a .jpg (2.39mb). To insert it into a post, I use their hotkey Alt+Shift+m
and put the file URL in one edit field and the alt text in another. I use
the text editor, because it's easier for me to write code (<h2> ...</h2>,
<i> ... </i>, etc) than to use the toolbar.

So, when I inserted the photo into a page draft, this is what shows up in
the text editor Block quote <img
src="http://dewhill421.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/the_heart_of_applebutter_
hill_donnahillcoverart-2-39mb.jpg" alt="The Heart of Applebutter Hill by
Donna W. Hill book cover shows cave scene (stalactites reflected in
underground lake & hand holding the Heartstone of Arden-Goth): photos, Rich
Hill; design, Lizza Studios" /> Block quote end

So what can I do to this to make it open a download window? If you want to,
post your response to the list so others can benefit.
Thanks,
Donna
