Insert Picture

[Larry Wilks]

When I click the Insert Picture from File command FP 2003 opens My Webs
instead of My Pictures. How can I set FP to open My Pictures? Thanks.

You need to IMPORT the image into your images' file before placing on a
page.
Try that!

OK, but how can I set FP to open My Pictures from the Insert Picture File
command ? Is this a mapping technique? Thanks.

Larry - Manipulate your pictures in your favorite graphics editor first,
import or save them inside your website second, then insert them into you web
page last.

I said that you need to IMPORT the images. Do not use Insert Picture File.

That is what I am doing now. But when I click the Insert Picture from File
command (on the Standard Toolbar) FP 2003 opens My Webs instead of My

Pictures. How can I set FP to open My Pictures?

I thinks it's a Windows thing, it's gonna open the last folder you used to
insert pix from.

You're right Rob. That is exactly what is happening. Is there some way, when
I click on the Insert Picture command, to have FP open the My Pictires
folder?

You don't want it to open My Pictures.
Inserting from My Pictures will result in image links that point to your hard drive.
You want to import the images into your image folder inside your web, and then use insert
picture and insert them from the images folder.

Steve, Insert isn't really the issue. He just wants to go to My Pictures all
the time and not have to browse to get there...it's a windows thing I'm
sure, but have no idea if this could be done.

I think it'd need to be a Preference in FP, of which there isn't one of that
there but maybe some fp hacker dood could figure it out but i doubt there'd
be much reason to since EWD is coming soon to a theater near you. (how's
that for a run-on fragmented pre-caffeine Sunday morning sentence?)

Ok since you're determined:

Close FrontPage.
Run Regedit and go here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\FrontPage\Editor
In the right panel, right click on the Value Name:
Default Add Image Directory
and select modify.
In the next dialog, clear the entry in Value Data and add:

C:\My Documents\My Pictures

Close regedit and reopen FrontPage.

Be advised:
1. selecting an image this way will "Not" import it into your website
2. It will most likely create links in your web that point to your hard drive and as a
result your images will show fine in Preview and Preview in browser, but they will "Not"
publish to the server when you publish your web, therefore resulting in image place
holders ( boxes with little red X's ) in your published website.
3. This setting may be changed by FrontPage the next time you insert an image from a
valid web site.

No. That normal happen when you open a page that has external links to images, not file based paths
