I do not have sufficient knowledge about photo management & security in
order
to understand or implement the Publisher Help topic of:
"Reduce download times by adding thumbnail images to a Web page".

It means use a thumbnail for general display, if you want a larger view link
the thumbnail to a larger image which gives the viewer an option to see
bigger pic.



Photos illuminate the topic of my website. Before (treatment) & After
(treatment) pictures are really important when:
a) there's good-enough resolution to see at least some of the
difference;
b) they are clinical pix;
c) they haven't been touched up or altered.
These are not glamorous pictures, nor are they pix of models -- but of
every
day people who have graciously given permission to have their photos used
for
this purpose.

Some of my concerns/questions are about security:
1. Is there any way of preventing folks from lifting off such a pic &
then messing with it? photoshopping in transformations, distortions,
improvements?
2. I wouldn't have to set up 'network sharing', would I? I think
that
photos on a page doesn't allow the same security as no photos? Or am I
totally mixing metaphors/concepts? could be, could be.

There's little security on the web; if a viewer can see it...they can get
it. Use low resolution (72 or 96 ppi) and small dimensional sizes where if
someone did steal it there's little they could do with it. You can also
watermark it. Avoid, at all costs, the use of no-right click scripts - they
don't work but they do piss people off.

Make your images the dimensions you need for your design, in your image
editor, then optimize them before use in Pub.







And here's the one concrete procedure question that I can formulate right
now:
-- Would I be using 'picture display' function, where there are 3
format choices -- Detailed, Fast resize or Hide?

Applies only to what you see IN Publisher when creating your design, nothing
to do with the web.



I think that I've got questions about Content Library & Clipboard, too.

And I'm not quite sure how the Insert, Object, Object Type [Adobe
Photoshop
Elements]: either Create New or Create From File (yes, I know the
explanation
is 'activate object using program that was used to create it -- but I
don't
know what that really means/what impact that has on loading time &
accessibility). And then there's the 'Display as Icon' checkbox.

Don't insert as an Object, just insert your .jpg, .gif, or .png images into
your design.


When I searched on this website, nothing came up under Thumbnails or
Photos
for Pub 2007. What other search terms might I use? Do you know of a
particularly applicable series of Q&As that have already been published?

Oh -- and I do have the 'normal' display pictures that need to be placed
in
the upper left corner of each page.

Not sure what you have, or what you mean.


That's a beginning set of questions. Please use lots of spaces & non-tech
language for those of us who aren't up to speed! <g>
