i just signed up for an acount and i can't work out how to submit a capture.

after i log in and choose the capture service, it asks me to brouze my computer for the capture image on my hard drive. but of course it's not on my harddrive, it's on an internet website.

how do i submit it anyone?

thanks

You will have to download the solona captcha tool from the solona website. It will take a picture of the website you want to solbe the captcha and you can send it to them to solv it.
Or if you are using qwitter you can create a solona session and do it that way which is much faster.

Qwitter has Solona support that's really streamlined.

In general, you take a screenshot of the page with the captcha you want solved, and upload this to Solona. I use it on both my machines, and it works well, most of the time. I don't know how to take screenshot in Windows, but there may be instructions on the Solona site. In Linux, you can use the 'take screenshot' app in Accessories. On Macos, I think it's ctrl-option-4?

I believe it's the print screen key, or you may have to press shift printscreen to take a screen shot. Qwitter and solona work really well together if you use that.

Most of the time when I've tried using it it's been offline. When I do use it though, it works well with qwitter.
