Hi all,

I have just created my very first website. I have purchased a domain name and hosting account. I have designed my website with the Webeasy 8 Professional software.
Yesterday I managed to upload all 12 pages and pics. But something seems to be wrong with these pics. They are not shown..... disappointment!
What could I have done wrong?
What is the best format for pics to be uploaded? Mine are all jpg.
What is the recommended amount of pixels to have a good result on a website?

Many thanks for your response!
Christine

Can you please provide the link to your website so we can look at the code? One thing I see is that you are using Windows 7 and unless they upgraded Windows 7 isn't supported in Web Easy 8.

Hi Christineverr, I looked at your code and you haven't linked to any photos. Where you want your photos to appear you need to add the code, <img src="piclocation.jpg"> or course piclocation is the name of your photo. I totally dislike Web Easy as it is not what it claims to be and can mess up your code and SEO.

Hi Mcorton, many thanks for your reply.
I understand I have to add a code in the HTML script. I haven`t worked in the html screen so far, as all of the html coding happens behind the screens and you don`t really get to see it. Do you mean I have to add this code for each and every picture?
Also, for every new picture, do I then need to add a link to a particular picture?
I agree with you about WebEasy that it`s not good. Do you recommend other software? Dreamweaver? And do you know a good tutorial to learn Dreamweaver?
Many thanks again for your kind assistance.
Christine

Coffecup Free does almost everything Dreamweaver does and it's free. Also much easier to understand. You do have to add a code for each picture telling the server where to find it. You only need to add a link to a picture if it's a smaller version and links to a full size version or you want to use it as a link to another site. I'll try to link you to a good html tutorial site. Feel free to ask any questions as I know my explaination may need to be clarified with examples.
