I need help, friends.

How do I make this into something readable, or is that not possible? I have put spaces in here so it will show up. Thanks for any help!!

On a Mac, just type command-shift-4 to take a select screenshot (command-shift-3 for full screen). eppur_se_muova Jun 2017 #10

It's the meme with Chris Christie and David Frum-have to scroll down. It's a tweet from Eli Stokels...

Every meme I want to copy that starts with https://scontent... is not accessible to me. This one is particularly funny imo.

What I do is above the photo there is the word 'photo' and USUALLY it is a link that you can click. For some reasons (maybe I'm not a member of this page?) here it is not underlined when you point to it. If it is for you, click it. THEN when you point to the BIG photo you should see options at the bottom. Download it and then re-upload it to Photobucket or something like that. The image links that FB uses as we now know (!) cannot be accessed directly.

Or take a screenshot and upload it, like I just did! I use Snagit to do these.

now you can right click and use copy image link and it'll work.

I just looked and it's $50 which I think is kinda high but...

there are other options. In fact, you prolly know that WIndows has the Snipping Tool built in.

That's been part of the Mac OS since the Eighties.

The Facebook "scontent" images need to be rehosted at Photobucket or wherever.
Even if you can get the scontent links to work, they eventually go bad as they are temporary links.
