I know I'm not explaining this clearly, but what you've said above
would be relevant if I had created a page using html. I can do that,
and get it to work fine.
However, this is something created in Adobe Photoshop 7, and I don't
write the tags. With the Adobe Web Gallery, you put images in a
folder and Photoshop creates the pages. I don't have to write any
tags in this program.
My problem seems to be just FTPing the right folders so that they are
linked.
You might wonder at this point why I'd want to bother with Adobe Web
Gallery if I can put up images on a site by writing my own page.
Well, it's easy to share pictures with family by just dumping the
images in a folder and hitting "Automate". Some text can be added,
but it's basically just images in some standard templates. I use PS7
quite a bit to tweak my photographs.
Last....other people use Adobe Web Gallery with Earthlink, and it
bothers me that I can't figure out how to do it when others can.
