Display a Gallery of Photos on Your Web Site with FrontPage 2002

With Microsoft FrontPage® 2002 you can add a collection of photos or other images to your Web site in the form of a visual catalog. A photo gallery is very useful for visitors to your site because it gives them a quick way to scan a collection of images by reviewing a collection of smaller (thumbnail) images. When visitors view your photo gallery in a browser window, they can choose which images they want to see and click each thumbnail to display the full-size image the thumbnail represents.

Using the Web Component command (Insert menu) in FrontPage 2002, you can create a photo gallery consisting of thumbnails of images with captions and descriptions if needed. By default, the thumbnails are 100 pixels by 100 pixels in size (a little more than 1 inch by 1 inch square).

Photo gallery layouts

There are four different types of photo gallery layout available in FrontPage 2002: Horizontal, Vertical, Montage, and Slide Show.

	Use a Horizontal layout when you want your photos to appear in a simple album-style layout.
	Vertical layout also presents your photos in a simple album-style layout, with users viewing images from top to bottom.
	Display your images as a collage with the Montage layout.
	Create a scrolling catalog of your images with the Slide Show layout. When a thumbnail is selected, the full-size image appears below the row.
