Photos not being added to my web. - 5/22/2002 20:52:11
I am playing around with making a website for my business. I'm not familiar with html, but am giving frontpage a go around. I used one of the templates to start me off on my way. I'm trying to add my company logo to the top of my page, but I can't seem to get any folders other than \my webs. And even when I paste my jpegs there, I can't see them. How can I get my logo and for that matter, other pitures into my file ?
I can do it when I'm not using a template. Why ?

For starters, don't use the pre-packed templates for a website. They're great if you want to play around and learn some FP, but not that hot for a website...
Second, click the insert image button on your toolbar, then when the window pops up you should be able to browse your hard drive for the picture you want to insert.
html is REALLY simple... take a look at this link for some of the basics:
http://www.w3schools.com/html/
Do a search for html tutorial, and you'll get a list of thousands of similar sites.
If you're building this for your business, you may be disapointed in the result if you're not at least somewhat familiar with hand-coding html for webs.
Once you get a handle on basic html (and itIS BASIC)check out the templates for sale on this site. Good looking stuff for a minimal price.
Think about how many hours you'll spend designing your site and learning how, etc... then compare that to the cost of an OutFront template.
They still require some know how and a little work, but they will be a huge time saver.
Are you working with FP98, FP2K, or FP '02?

I'm using FP2000.
I know that I need to click insert , and then picture from file, but when I do that, I can't access anything at all from my hard drive. When I don't use a template, I can access all my drives. But I;d like to use a template so I can sample what is being done in terms of the html part.
Thanks for the link. I'm checking it out now.

FP 2000 has a little button (I think it's to the bottom right of the file folder tree) that is for inserting a picture from outside your current web...
If you hover around and check out the descriptions of the buttons you should find it (it's been a while since I used FP2K)
After you click that button you should be able to browse your hard drive for the pic you want...
