Tips for Publishing Images
- Be sure images are gif,
jpg, or jpeg
- Be sure images do not have a space in their name
- Be sure when you publish new images the first
time you have the disk in the computer and you
have the Include image and other files ... box checked.
See
example above.
- Be sure you publish images from one disk at a
time.
- After publishing hit Reload to check your images.
