Image 2 Web - Quick Guide

• Step one

  - click on the button "New Webpage"
  
  This will bring up an empty webpage shell (with a placeholder picture).





• Step two

  - add images by menu "Images->Add".
  
  Also, you can drag a group of images or folders from the finder




• Step three

  - add title, comments and other info (if desired)
  
  The program show one image at a time. You can cycle through the images using the arrows buttons or the menus "First" "Last" "Next" "Previous".




• Step four

  - Update Image Info.
  
  Now that you have added a bunch of interesting captions, comments, etc to your images, you will normally want to save that information in your image. You can do it for each image by clicking the "Save Info" or you can use the menu "Images->Update Image Info."
  
  Note, this will add a comment field to your jpeg images which holds all the information.





• Step five

  - Save and Generate the webpage.
  While there is a lot of options to customize your webpage, those are covered in the more detailed section.
  
  Do menu "Webpage->Save & Generate". I suggest that you don't change the directory, but use the default or change the "Digital Workspace Directory." You can give the webpage the name 'whatever' for this example.
  
  The program will create a saved file name "whatever.i2wb". You will also see a directory called "whatever". That is your webpage. In there, you will see a file called index.html - which is the main page. Double click on it to see your webpage. In that directory you will see 3 other directorys
  images - the large version of your images (all convereted to jpeg) thumbnails - the smaller version of the images pages - each full size image has its own html webpage with whatever extra data (filesize, filename, title, caption, location, etc) in it.
  




• Step six

  - copy to where ever.
  Now that the page is created, you can move it to where you want. You can upload it to your server or move it to /Users/yourname/Sites if you have your own webserver.
  
  Note - you want to move the entire directory. The webpages expect the names of the files and folders to stay the same (you can change the main folder name, e.g. 'whatever' can be changed).
