Images

[Guest]

Hi,

I am trying to create a newsletter using FrontPage. I create the
newsletter, and it looks fine when I preview it in the browser, however, when
I click the send button to send the newsletter using outlook, my pictures
show up as a red x, instead of the actual pictures. How do I get FrontPage
to send the pictures with the rest of the page?

Thanks

The images are pointing to your hard drive.

You must have the images, with the correct path, on your remote server, so
when you send the web page via email, they are available.

The normal way to do things would be to first Import your images into
Frontpage, most usually into an Images folder (just to have some
organization to things)

Then make your newsletter page and when you need an image, do an
Insert of the image from the Images folder.

That way FP knows where the images are. After you are done and have
saved everything then use FP to publish your site to:

http://www.whereeveryourserveris.com

This assumes your site hoster has the Frontpage Extensions installed.
If it doesnt, you can still transfer your files up by ftp, and your
newsletter page will be looking for the images it uses in the Images
folder on the site.

I dont know if I answered your question because I am not sure exactly
what you are doing.

Thanks Clark and Tom
I do import the image into the image folder, and then insert the image.
However, I do not want to publish the webpage on the internet, I just want it
to be a static page that I send through email (with the pictures). Can I do
that?

The images must be publicly available on a server.

Out of curiousity, if all you want to do is make a newsletter and
email it to some people, why dont you just make it with Word and send
it as an email attachment. The images are part of the Word document
and go with it --
