Display Graphics and Photos on a Page

Chapter 3 of the book Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft FrontPage 2003 in 24 Hours by Rogers Cadenhead, published November 2003 by Sams Publishing

Although the World Wide Web is primarily a written medium, all of your well-chosen words will be for naught unless people stick around long enough to read them.

To entice visitors to your site and keep them coming back, you can surround your text with eye-catching graphics, digital photos, and other Web browser window dressing. FrontPage 2003 makes it easy to add a graphical flair to your pages, even if you're not remotely artistic.

You don't even need your own graphics -- FrontPage includes a clip art archive containing thousands of icons, drawings, and photographs that you can use on your own pages.

In this hour, you will learn

• How to place graphics and photos on a Web page
   
• When to use each of the popular graphics file formats: GIF, JPEG, and PNG
   
• How to arrange graphics alongside text
   
• How to add hyperlinks and captions to a graphic
