Imageready"dupliate Images...
- Thread starter matelin
- Start date
As you mention ImageReady, I assume you slice your imags or create animGIF's
My guess is that you create your pages and then slice them up and save them. That way you save everything time and time again as IR creates html references to specific pics and cannot "know" what you did before.

As Erik stated IR doesn't know what you saved the last page files as. The best way to handle different pages is in the root directory have one folder called images. This will be the folder for the main page. Then make subfolders for the other pages with image folders inside that subfolder. This will help you keep the pages and images organized.
index.html
(images)
(new folder)second page.html

duplicateimages
ok, I do understand that making different image folders will help organize. But say, I have my logo (the same logo) on all mypages. I dont really want to save that same logo in each image folder, correspomding to that individual page, LIke page 1, opage 2, 3,,ect.... do ? Or i have a footer or a sliced image that is the same image as in all my web pages..............must I save the same images..is that not duplicating some of the images, and dont that cause uneeded and used space as far as web space??? sorry for the basic question, but I am reading LOTS!! and I am learning each day a different thing or two..a million more things to learn! I am starting to read my psd bible lol, Thanks for all the assistance. This is a good forum.

That is where HTML comes in. You have to link to the main file from each page. Let's say you want the main site logo to show up on page two. Then the code would be:
<img src="../../images/logo.gif" width="750" height="100" alt="your file name">
The ../../ determines how far down the file structure this page is so it can refer to the main gif file. The example above is for a page that is listed as such:
mainindex.html
.....(new folder)information
.......(new folder)myinformation(this is the page that would have the above code to ref. the main site logo.)
If you don't know the basic HTML commands then stop now and read up on that. A good site to start with is w3.org . This will save you lots of headaches. IR and pshop can only code so much of the site for you. What software are you using to code the HTML in your site?

Don't do that just yet. What program are you using for HTML coding? If you are not using anything here are some freebie programs that will help you:

http://www.coffeecup.com/
http://www.studioware.com/ (this is the one I used when I first started)
http://www.evrsoft.com/
The first one, arachnophilia is very good for the beginner that knows nothing about HTML coding. Hope this helps! :} :B

Imageready?pullingout hair
Actually I use, ready???..Frontpage and Golive, still learning Golive though. And I also have Dreamweaver. I understand the html a bit' and still learning as I go. Maybe I am not explaining myself correctly. This is my problem: I have all my pages set for my web. I go to imageready where i created my rollovers and slicing. However when I am creating my 2nd or 3rd ect.. page it ask me tto save all optimized images and html.. so I do that. But after the process once I go to my editor, It has the same images saved double times, for the 2nd page..and triple times for the 3rd page and so on........... my web is a 18 page web site so I cannot have all them same images duplicating them selves like that. Ok , I am alomost bald now' next goes the eyebrows,

imageready
But I am getting duplicates anyways, regardless what image folder i save them in, because alot of the sclices r the same as on page one, 2 and so on.......is there a way those slices can be saved throughout the whole web so I dont have too many of the same slices??
