PHOTOBUCKET TUTORIAL: how to redact and remove your personal information

1. When you receive your screen and/or email confirming your donation, take a screen shot of the pertinent information. With a Mac: shift + apple + 4 will get you a cursor to crop the pertinent information. With a PC: simply use your "print screen" key.

2. The image captured can now be loaded into a Photobucket account. These are free. If you don't have one, you'll need to sign up for an account. I recommend password protecting you account (it will not affect your image links).

3. Once you are in your account, you can load up the image of the receipt using the "upload image and videos" button →

Whee, thanks for this! *didn't have a clue how that worked*

Is it a problem if I simply erase those data by opening the screencap image in paint or whatever graphic program and erasing it with the eraser tool?

Oh, that's definitely fine! But we couldn't tutorial on everything, so since everyone can access Photobucket, that's what we tutorial-ed on.

I had no idea how to do that, thank you so much for the tutorial.
