OK, i recently have been foolin around with photoshop 7 and have created a simple animated ripple effect image. I would like to put it on my homepage using FrontPage... the animated file is a .psd, I cant seem to figure out how to get it onto fronpage... does it not recognize .psd files?

thanks

Unless I am mistaken, you can't use *.psd images on webpages. What you will have to do is to convert the pic to an animated gif. You could also try playing around with Flash. As for using Frontpage, it is a good program to make some quick changes if you don't want to dig through code again, but I would recommend just coding it yourself in something like notepad. Frontpage tends to add a ton of extra stuff that you don't need. Coding your own pages (without the help of an editor) is actually really easy. There are plenty of sources out there where you can learn to code HTML, and you can also go to the View Menu and click on Source. That will give you the source code for webpages (which is a really good way to learn). By the way, all you have to do for an image is < img src="someImg.jpg" > . Take out the spaces at the beginning and end...just did that so it would show up here instead of thinking I was trying to insert an image!
