Frontpage And Powerpoint

[MChoate]

OK, I need a simple version of a photo Gallery that I can link to my Web
page. I guess I would need to add a text or graphic. I've tryed using the
Photo Gallery in FP but it will not advance Auto. I have also tryed using
Jalbum, but I do not know HTML Codes and I want to add Text and a Link back
to my Home Page. So Maybe Powerpoint would be an easier to add the Photo
Gallery. Is there a downside to using the PP and if not why is it never
suggested. I need to display Mission Pictures on my site with Captions to
explain the picture and easy navigation for the viewer to get back to my
Homepage.. Help

It's never suggested because it's bulky and the viewer would have to have
Power Point or at least the Power Point Viewer installed on their machine to
work.

JAlbum is very very easy to use and all you have to do is create ONE link
back to your main page (any page) and you can even do that with FP.

Thanks Rob, I like JAlbum, I'll try it. Can you give me a hint where to
start on creating the link.

Whole 9 yards:

Create your JAlbum into a folder outside of FP. Once you are happy with it
(usually takes a few tries (or a hundred) to get it the way you want) then;
Open FP
File | Open Web/Site
File | Import and you will Import the entire JAlbum folder that you created
the album INTO...the one outside of FP.

After importing it into FP, click on that folder, then click on the main
index page...you'll see it. That will open the page, it will be the top
level page for all the JAlbum pages...so you just have to create a link from
there to any page in your normal web that you want...piece o'cake.
Cant tell you exactly because there are many skins for JAlbums and they are
all slightly different, some are easier than others to create or CHANGE that
link back home.

You'll get it...its pretty easy
