[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1142290, member: 112"]Using paint you can't just insert the arrows - you have to [U]draw[/U] the arrows. When you open Paint you'll have a tool bar with lots of little symbols on it. One looks like a pencil, another looks like a paint brush. You can use either of these, the paint brush makes broader, thicker lines and the pencil very thin lines. And if you use the paint brush you get to decide just how thick those lines are by selecting it on the little chart that opens below the icon toolbar when you click on the paint brush. You also get to select the color of the lines (when using either pencil or brush) by using the color chart toolbar at the bottom. Once you have made your selections then you place the cursor on the image and draw your arrows or circles or whatever by clicking and holding down the button as you draw. If you make a mistake or you don't like the way it looks, just click on Edit and select Undo and the last lines you drew will disappear. If you slect Edit and click on Undo again, the line made immediately previous will also disappear. This allows you take you image back to its original image. If you want to save your original unaltered image (with no arrows or circles) but also save the altered image with the arrows, then click on File, then Save As, and rename the altered image. That way you will have both - your original image and the altered image. Bout all there is to it.[/QUOTE]
