Inserting an image into a page
What's related > Images
- Position the cursor where you want to the image to appear
- Click the Insert Picture from File icon - that's the yellow square normally located to the right of the table icon
- When the Picture window appears, open the images subfolder, if it is not already shown
- Select the image you want to include. You'll see a preview of it
- Click OK. The image will appear on the page. It is not embedded in the page; rather, FrontPage, just like the browser, knows to include the image at that particular point when displaying the page. In other words, the page links to the image
- For accessibility reasons, you'll need to add some alternative text for users who have either opted not to view images or who have visual impairments and use a screen-reader.
- Right-click the image, select Picture Properties
- Click the General tab and in the Text field under Alternative representations enter a brief description of the image
- Click OK
To insert an image from an external source:
- Open the page in the web browser
- Right click on the picture and select Properties
- Copy the URL address
- Switch back to FrontPage
- Click on 'Insert Picture from File'
- Paste this address in the URL box
