picts

[Guest]

I'm using fp 2002 - if I want to easily create a column of picts (10 or so)
on the left side of the page, and want them to all be the same size, and want
to be able to paste picts of various sizes into the pre-established "frame"
(so they are all the same size on the page....is there an easy way to so
this? The tables are a pain and inseting the std. web components are
cumbersome .....Thanks!

Hi harry,

Of course, the real problem here is that you're talking about "various
sizes" of pictures, which means that not only height, but width as well
(ratio of height to width) may vary from picture to picture. In that case,
you need to determine which dimension is "fixed" and which is "variable."
If, for example, you want to put them into columns, it sounds like the width
needs to be fixed, and the height needs to be variable. If so, you can
simply set the width attribute of the image tag and leave the height
attribute out of the tag. This results in the widht being set, and the
height proportional to the width.

You need to start with pictures that are the same size.
For this you should use an image editing program such as
Photoshop Elements or something like it.

Once you have the photos the same size, placing them into
the table you describe is simple.

If the images can be easily scaled down to standard size you can use a free program like IrFanView to batch scale them to the same width (keep aspect ratio same).

Then just pop them in a table...piece o'cake. If you want them to appear in other pages that same way...put that table into a Page Include.
