posting jpeg photographs on website

24 years ago

I have to add about 20 jpeg photos to a school website but I'm sure many of the people who will view the site have slower machines than me. I made up an html page with all the jpegs on it in thumbnail size. Should I now just have the pictures like to a page with only say 3 on each page that will show each pic in a decent size? Is there a good way to do this?

Just make sure your thumbnails are different smaller pictures. I have seen some people just change the size of the picture in the code and that doesn't help with the down load. To do this you will have to make a web page for each set of pictures and link to it from the thumbnail page. It would be easier if you had a program that would do it for you. If you have Netscape there is a webpage composer in it that is great for beginners.

Here's how I did thumbnails on one of my pages:
Model horses

I just tell people to use their back button, one picture per page. Then I don't have ho make up a whole separate page for each picture.

Here is a link that might be useful: model horses

You don't have to use photobucket. There are plenty of free sites where you can store your pictures on the internet. Or possibly even your internet provider account (Earthlink, Road Runner, AOL, etc) may provide that service. Once you have your picture saved to the internet somewhere, you provide the link to the picture. For example, the following would post my picture ... <img src="http://www.geocities.com/sno_bunn_y/kitch1-2.jpg"> Which I am currently asking for suggestions on, by the way ! . . . http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/kitchbath/msg0623073132399.html?15 The important thing is to actually link to your picture only. One easy way to get the web address to your picture is to right click on the picture, choose properties, and then copy the web address. For example, <img src="http://a820.g.akamai.net/f/820/822/1d/i.ivillage.com/adsales/images/ivillage_88x31.gif"> would give you ... .

You could also make each mini picture open in a new window by adding TARGET="_blank"

The code would look like this: (I used your 1st picture as a sample)

<A HREF="0333.jpg" TARGET="_blank"><IMG SRC="mini-033.jpg" BORDER="0"></A>

Then the user can simple close the bigger picture when s/he's done and the mini pictures will still be in another browser.

Good luck!
