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 →
4. Once you've uploaded your image you should get a screen that looks like this→
5. Choose "save & return to album" and you will be returned to the album where you saved the image.
6. Above the image, choose "edit" and that will take you to a new screen and it may take a minute to load. It should look like this →
7. Choose "decorate from the tab menu and then choose "erase" which is the fifth choice from the left. If your image is very small, you can blow it up with the bar to the right to zoom in on what you need to erase.
8. You can resize the erase circle as needed but the default size works well.
9. Just drag the circle across what you want to erase while holding down your mouse button --- name, address, last four digits of a credit card, etc. For the example purposes, I erased John's last name and address at the bottom and the transaction ID number. Choose "save a copy" after you've erased everything.
10. The image will show up on a new screen. Hover your cursor over the image and a gray menu bar will appear directly over the image. Choose the download option. This will save your edited image to wherever you usually save your downloaded materials (mine go to the desktop).
11. You can then attach the image in an email and send it off to be validated and thus win your bid. It should look something like this →
