Managing Graphics in Tamplates

[John Stewart]

Hopefully this is a simple question to answer and maybe I'm just missing the
obvious.

I'm designing a site using a pre-defined template supplied with FrontPage.
Obviously I would like to have the template carry to each child and sub-page
but I would like to be able to change the graphic image in the header
between pages. Currently, if I change an image on lets say the "Links" page
it puts that image on ALL the pages in the web.

Is there a way to break the link so each page can have a different image but
still use all the remaining effects of the template?

I would certainly appreciate any help that any of you may be able to
provide.

Not possible when it is in a shared border area of the page.

This is hard to answer with only the information you've
given. However:

o If the picture is inside a Shared Border, a Link Bar,
an Include Page component, or a non-editable region in
a Dynamic Web Template, then changing the picture will
affect all occurrences.

o Otherwise, each occurrence of the picture is
independent.

Well, that's not quite the answer I was hoping for, but I guess it's what
I'll have to live with. Looks like it may be time to dump the tamplate and
freehand the pages.

Thank You Jim and Tom for the quick responses.

Try doing it with Included pages. Much more flexible than Shared Borders.
