Sharing Root Web Images in Subweb?

[Jonathan Rosenberg]

I am using subwebs to control access to certain parts of a web site.

I'm wondering whether there is a way to reference the root web's images in
the subweb? When I try to do this, it always asks me where I want to save
the new images in the subweb. It seems ike a major hassle to have to
dpulicate files like this.

Am I doing something wrong? Any ideas?

Subweb are completely independent webs under the root. Either copy the image
to the subweb or use a absolute URL (http://...) to them in the root web.

Subweb are completely independent webs under the root. Either copy
the image to the subweb or use a absolute URL (http://...) to them
in the root web.

I sometimes do this with relative addressing by using "../" to point to the
image file in the main web. For example ...

<img src="../jpg/digiprint_faq.jpg" width="450" height="100">

where the folder "jpg" resides only in the main web.
