Using the Windows XP Publishing Wizard

Right click and "Save as…"
Windows makes it pretty easy to upload pictures to your LiveJournal ScrapBook account, but before you can start flooding your account you need to set up your computer with ScrapBook's upload information. Save the registry file to your computer, then once it's done open it to install ScrapBook's publishing wizard.
A Quick Introduction
-
After you install the registry file, you will start seeing the option to "Publish this file to the Web" in the left side pane as you browse images on your computer. Clicking the publish option will start the publishing wizard.
-
The publishing wizard will launch in a new window, and will show a starting screen. Clicking "Next >" in the wizard will take you to the File Selection screen, where you can double check the images you're about to upload.
-
Clicking "Next >" will take you the service selection screen, where ScrapBook will appear. Other services that you can upload to will show up here as well; make sure you select "ScrapBook".
-
The wizard will check if you're logged into ScrapBook from Internet Explorer. If you are, you'll be taken directly to your gallery selection screen, but if not you'll have to log in. You can bypass this option altogether if you're permanently logged into ScrapBook from Internet Explorer.
-
Once the wizard knows which ScrapBook account to upload to, you'll be given the chance to select which gallery you want your pictures uploaded. If you've never used ScrapBook before, or if you haven't setup any galleries yet, you'll have to upload to the "(Unsorted)" gallery.
-
After you select which gallery you're uploading pictures to, the wizard will prepare your images and give you the option to resize them. ScrapBook will make thumbnails and smaller versions of your images after you upload them, so we only recommend resizing images when you're running low on disk space.
-
The last step in using the publishing wizard is actually uploading your files! You'll see a status screen showing which picture is currently being uploaded. Once the wizard is done you'll be taken to your Account Management center.
