Another question about annotations

I am playing a game against another team member and I am annotating the game as we go along.

At the end of the game, is there a way that I could post the annotated game onto our team forum? Failing that, I guess that I could make the annotation public but then would I be able to post a link to it on our team forum?

So, in fact two questions about annotations, sorry about that.

Thanks for listening, any help or advice would be appreciated.

Yes ... there is, I believe.

Tho you must understand I am Not a computer guy, and there is probably some better way. But i beleive what I do to put a link Here in forums to a game from my Annotation Queue would probably work for you too , in club forum.

After saving it to Annotated Games, not public; Take the url and post it there. BUT There is a trick tho. For some reason you cannot just take the url off the page you just annotated and saved. You have to go back out and into your Annotatted Game que to it again. And re-enter yourself to the game from the list there. Dont go there by url. THEN grab the url and post it. Otherwise it does not pick up the annotated game number for some reason and all they would get from going to your link would be the Start Position board with no game nor notes.

Can anyone tell me why that is ?! Please let us know if this works for you, btw.

Thanks

It worked just fine, at least as far as taking it to the preview stage. I didn't go right through with it yet as the game is still in progress but having got to this stage, I see no reason why it shouldn't work.

You could also post the annotation on the team forum, if you save it and keep it private or make it public. Then you copy and paste the annotation in the team forum. For example, I did this in a team game against 10four, and it worked out .
