hello anybody know how i use a scid program

i manage to set up a board but do not know how to save it in a file and how to post it in here as a quiz

please help

It is rather simple. Look at the bottom of your SCID pane (where the moves, material count etc. are listed). Look for a FEN code ... looks like 8/8/8/k16/.

The FEN code represents your position. That is all you need. Copy and paste that FEN code into the Insert-Diagram wizard of chess.com and you're all set.

Well you missed the key step. After you set up the position, copy (Ctrl-c) the FEN code and then paste it in your chess.com diagram wizard.
