Steganography the easy way

 by nutsandbolts_64
 The procedures require minimal skill to execute. Any image can be turned into a covert data carriage to carry information to your friends, family and the police just in case someone might be stalking you and has threatened to do something bad to you or your family/friends if you told anyone about that guy. So then you could "act" like your filing a missing pet case (or something of that nature) and hand out some image with hidden data on it and a tiny note saying "This image is a steganograph" so the police can scan it and figure out what's happening. Of course, that's just one of many possible uses of steganography.

Step 1: Install your software; take your pics

 Of course you need the software. This software is free and efficient. Click on download mirror 1 if you live in the US and download mirror 2 if you live elsewhere. Refer to image 1 if you're still confused. When it's done downloading extract the .zip file to any folder you want. 

You don't necessarily need to take your pictures right now, but it helps to at least test it with some sort of image.
