How do you blank out a name of a ship. solved by cappy

[Lewis McColl]

As they seem to be popular how do I go about blanking out the name of a ship and also save myself the embarassment when I do post a pic and ask if you can name it. Recently my two attempts have been failures altough I did raise a laugh.large ross.jpg even this one when you hover over the download it tells you who or what it is. I suppose one way would be to print the photo tipex out the info and then scan it .

Lewis,
find the name of the file ie Brittanic.jpeg, right click on the mouse, a drop down file opens up, scroll down to rename, click. The file is highlighted type in the new name of the file ie. quiz. Do not type in .or-, just the new name.
Regards
Vic
