Hi everyone,
I recently received my 5,000th feedback, and a shiny new green star to go with it (whoopie).
I also received a message (from Ebay) in "My Messages" congratulating me on this milestone.
One of the parts of the message say's this...."We hope you'll download your Green Star Certificate and display it proudly".
I wouldn't mind displaying this "certificate" if only I could figure out how to display it.
When I click on the link that they gave me to access the certificate, it pops up with Acrobat Reader and there's NO way to even copy it to display it in my auctions.
Anyone here know just how I would go about copying it to display in my auctions?

Phil,
They don't intend you to use that in your auctions. They want you to print it out and frame it -- hanging it by your desk or among the framed photos of your loved ones (accckkk!)
You can print it and then scan it in - using any graphics program or even photo program to edit it into a useable .jpg image.
Or, you can display it on your monitor - making sure your cursor isn't anywhere important - then hit the "Print Screen" button (usually SHIFT / Print Screen combined) -- then paste it into your photo or graphics editing program.
How's that?

I downloaded all of the pdf star awards and have them on my PC as PDF and just print screen crop and add your own name if ya want. I found them all by way of google I think it was. Anyway seems like they should hide it better than they do. I have them all if I want to look a big shot I could print up any I wanted but alas I have only printed the one they sent me for the red star. Don't even have it hanging up think it is in a folder somewhere. LOL here is green one at 50% reduced. you can't resize this one, would look bad.

Or, as Mr Acrobat Ralphie instructs:
Yo! Broz! Iffen ya look up on top of yer PDF, there be a CAMERA ICON -- click it & then use yer cursor to "outline" yer "award" -- THEN, RIGHT-CLICK on the outlined area & hit COPY...
THEN, open IRFAN-VIEW & hit: EDIT...THEN, from the drop-down menu hit PASTE, and "Viola!" -- there be yer "award!"
Very useful for puppy "training" or for lining the bottom of Polly's cage!
