How do I reattach cabinet doors with self-closing hinges?

I recently remodeled my kitchen with cabinets that have self-closing hinges. I had to take the doors off to do some spackling and painting and then could not get them back on? Is there a simple way?

    If they are hidden 'European' hinges with the button on the back end then they snap in by hooking the front end first and pressing on the back end until it snaps in. They can be a little tricky the first time. Maybe you could post a picture. Best, Charles
