Blog Linked Image banner

hi,
I'm searching for hours now but still can't find it.
i want to make a blog with 1 big banner image all the time and under that the text.
found an template with it: http://uguru-tabernacle-us.businesscatalyst.com/media
Found 1 way to do that http://practicallyinspired.com/_blog/Blog/post/Condense_your_Business_Catalyst_blog_post_l ist_with_a_thumbnail_and_preview_text/
but i want to avoid that way because you still have to load all the other images you could have in the post.
Does anyone know what the best way is to do this?

Dropdown list to change image field linked image?

Hello,
I am quite new in Designer but I have to complete a job and I don't find the solution.
I try to update on a form an image field using the value of a dropdown box and a "if" script.
I use linked images (not embedded ones) and try using a script calling the image Field. value. image. href property.
The property is well updated as export to xml displays well the new href value but the image is not displayed as something was missing to activate it.
form1.#subform[0].ImageField1::calculate - (FormCalc, client)
if (UN_DropDownList == "3373") then ImageField1.value.image.href = ".\Images\UN3373.png"
endif
Rather simple (don't laugh at it) but it doesn't work.
I found solutions for embedded images via visible/hidden by dropdown list (not yet tested) as these ones. I give them below for reference (if some other users are interested)

But not for linked images (path or URL). By the way, I found same problem descriptions in other forums but without any proposed solution.
As I should have quite a lot of images with frequent updates, it seems to me a better solutions...
Thanks in advance for you help.

Hi Philippe,
Have a look at this blog, http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2009/11/linked_vs_embedded_template_im.html, it turns out that both linked and embedded images are stored in the PDF but just in different ways. So updating the href at run time will have no effect.
If you are not in a possition to store all the images in the PDF at design time then you might have to look at setting up a webservice to access them on a server.
Good luck

I have linked images that I want to resize horz & vert to (96.6% x 97.8%)

I have linked images that I want to resize horz & vert to (96.6% x 97.8%) and then center within the frame.
I'd like to have an applescript to do them all, so I don't have to manually do them each, each time.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Image banner control/webpart in master page

I am getting started with sp2010 dev and I am looking to build a visual web part(sandboxed) image banner, which will loop through user specified image library. The image changes on page refresh.My questions are,
1) Is there is a similar control out there which i could reuse or modify to my specifics so I need not reinvent the wheel. If not could give me a little insight on the approach please?
2) I would like some input on how to add the control to Master Page (v4.Master).
Thanks and Appreciate your help and replies :)

Can't change a linked image???

I have a lot left to learn in Dreamweaver but linking images I've done alot, I hope someone can help me on what I'm doing wrong. The linked image won't let me change links. Here is the home page http://kmmcement.com/. The bottom right picture under click to view slideshow is linked to slideshow.html. I changed the slideshow and named the new one ss.html. When I right click the picture and choose Change Link and select my new ss.html, it does not change it in the code. I tried manually to change it in the code and publish, but the new page won't load up (although when I preview the page, it loads fine.)
The only thing I've done differently on this site is that I finally learned to get the bottom navigation links to work without looking jumpy and jittery when clicking or rolling over them, by going to Modify - Page Properties and choosing links and set them up there (basic that I should've learned awhile ago). I didn't do the navigation bar until last, so would that have anything to do with not being able to change the link? If so, then how can I change it to where only the bottom navigation has it's own style as I'm sure there's going to be alot more links I'm going to be adding.
Thank you in advance for any help. (By the way, I'm using Dreamweaver CS3)

Starting on line 215 of your code, you have this:
<tr>
<td height="338"><div align="center">
<p class="style11">CLICK TO VIEW SLIDESHOW!</p>
<p><a href="slideshow.html"><img
src="images/slideshowpic.JPG" width="347" height="223"
border="0"/></a></p>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
Try changing it to this:
<tr>
<td height="338" style="text-align:center">
<p class="style11"><a href="ss.html">CLICK TO VIEW SLIDESHOW!</a></p>
<p><a href="ss.html"><img src="images/slideshowpic.JPG" width="347" height="223" border="0"/></a></p>
</td>
</tr>
Save. Upload page to server along with ss.html page. Hit refresh in your browser.

Linked image question

I create a monthly newsletter using InDesign CS3 (5.0.4) on a Dell Inspiron 6000 with a 1.5 GHz Pentium M processor, 2 GB of RAM and Win XP/SP3.
I collect information from various sources, some of which are Micorsoft Word documents with graphics, and I rarely have access to the separate graphic files. I have MS Word 2002 SP3.
I can Copy the graphics from Word into InDesign (when I right click on these images in Word, I do not have the Save Image As option). However, when I do so, the image is not linked, it is embedded, whatever the size of the image (and despite the Help file statement regarding images under/over 48 kB).
The problem I encounter is when I try to export (Cross Media Export/XHTML Dreamweaver) a specific newsletter article (Export/Selection), including those embedded graphics (I also create an web version of the newsletter), I receive a message that "...only linked images are exported." I want to export the article including the graphics.
After searching through the InDesign Help file, I found info that says to choose Window/Automation/Data Merge/Content Placement Options/Link Images to link and not embed images. This I have done.
After searching this forum, I found a posting that says Copy/Paste does not preserve links(from any application except another ID file).
In the ID Help file is a statement that the Links panel can be used to change the status (linked or embedded) of a graphic. However, when I open the Links panel after pasting an image into a frame, the only choices are Copy Links and Sort. I concluded that the limited choices are a result of the lack of a separate graphics file. Correct?
I can Paste the image into InDesign, Export it as a JPG (to create a separate graphics file), delete the Pasted image from the ID file, and then Place the JPG file into the ID file. That creates a linked image, which is included with the selected exported newsletter article.
Is there a better (simpler) way to accomplish this task?

There are a number of ways to get graphics out of Word/Powerpoint/Excel, but copy/paste into Indesign is the worst, mainly because you get only screen resolution.
1) Place the Word file. You'll get embedded graphics again (most of them at least), but there's nothing to stop you from unembedding them (through the Links panel), and you'll get full resolution images, not screen previews.
2) Print the Word file to PDF and then Place pages of the PDF.
3) Save the Word file to a web page (as mentioned by Jay and Jeffrey in this thread).
4) Open the Word file in OpenOffice, save in OO's native format, change the extension to .zip, and unzip the file (where you'll find your graphics in separate files).
5) My personal favorite: Copy out of Word and paste into Illustrator or Photoshop. Michael mentioned Photoshop too, but it's important to use the right program depending on the content. If you have a bitmap (a photo, scan, or screen capture), paste it into Photoshop. If you have a vector graphic (a drawing consisting of lines and shapes, like a graph) or a combination of vector and bitmap, paste it into Illustrator. The reason this is my favorite is because it gives me a chance to fix the graphic. If nothing else, everything from Word comes in as RGB, but I also usually need to change the typeface and size the graphic appropriately.

CS3 - Design View not showing externally linked images

In CS3 Design View, externally linked images are not showing
up... i am only getting the place holder.
To prempt some questions:
1/ Links are correct and complete - apart from the fact that
they show up when previewing in the browser(s) - i have
crosschecked
2/ There are no spaces in the url
3/ In the 'View' menu, 'Display External Files' is checked
I had this problem before and escargo suggested saving and
rebooting. It worked then but strangely, today, that file is again
showing some of the externally linked images but not all. And on a
new file, created today, none of the externally linked images are
showing up... :(
I'm sure there's a simple solution to the problem... anyone
have any idea what it could be?
Thanks and cheers,
JJ

Outlook not seeing link images

Hello All and Happy Friday (the 13th buwahaha)
OK, issue
Outlook 2010 and 2013 (Exchange Accounts)
Users get emails html formatted. Outlook displays the red x with the message "The linked image cannot be displayed. The file may have been moved, renamed, or deleted. etc..."
However, OWA displays it properly, so do the phones.
This leads me to believe it is proxy related. Now my problem comes in with the knowledge that we are using a Cisco IronPort as our proxy, we don't even configure the browsers for it... Just catches it.
I've tried every fix I can find and none have resolved the issue.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
I actually found a kb about this issue:
Images in email message disply a "red x" instead of the image if the Cache value in the registry is incorrectly configured
This problem occurs if there is incorrect registry data for the Cache
value under the following registry key.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
Important
Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it,
back up the registry for restoration in
case problems occur.
To resolve this problem, use the following steps to manually edit the data for the Cache value in the registry.
Exit Outlook if it is running.
Start Registry Editor.
Windows 8
On the Desktop, press the Windows key + X and click
Run . Type regedit in the Open box, and then press ENTER
Windows 7 or Windows Vista
Click Start , type regedit in the Start Search
box, and then press ENTER.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click
Allow
Windows XP
Click Start , click Run , type regedit
, and then click OK.
Locate and then select the following key in the registry.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
Update the Cache value to the default value according to your version of Windows.
Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista
Name: Cache
Type: REG_EXPAND_SZ
Data: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files
Windows XP
Name: Cache
Type: REG_EXPAND_SZ

Exporting linked images with overlays

Hi,
I'm using InDesign CS5.5 on OS X Lion.
I have linked images in my InDesign document that I want to export as JPG and maintain the original file naming scheme. That part is easy (export as HTML, look in the images folder; export as ePUB, look in the images folder of the archive; etc.). But what I'm struggling with is when there are overlays added in InDesign. Some examples of overlays: part labels (e.g., "a", "b", "c"), text labels, arrows, lines, etc. The only way I've found to export the overlays is to do this:
-Group the placed image and overlay items together
-Apply Object Export Options to the grouped item such that Custom Rasterization is checked
-Export via one of the options (e.g., HTML, ePUB)
I get one image per group, which is what I want. The problem is that the filename for that image is now a random number. What I really need is the filename for the original image to be used.
I've also tried exporting to other formats, e.g., PDF (and using the extract all image options) but that doesn't preserve the overlays in the extracted images (which makes sense since the PDF sees the letters as text).
I figure to do this I have to write a script. So before I embark on that quest, I was hoping to get opinions on whether a) such a script is possible and b) whether there is a better way. For specific workflow considerations, moving the adding of these overlays to the images outside of InDesign (e.g., via Photoshop) is not an option.
I envision a script that does the following:
-Set custom rasterization on every grouped object
-Export all grouped objects and other linked images as JPG (with certain settings)
-The exported images for the links would preserve the original filename (adding "_fmt" like InDD does now would be okay) and for the grouped items it would use the filename of the linked image that is part of the group (and fallback to a random number if there is no such image). In the case that the filename could not be specified, then embed the original filename of the linked image in the group
Obviously, if a script could also do the grouping of objects (e.g., finding a linked image, checking to see if there is anything on top of it, grouping it all together), then that would be even better, but I'm not holding my breath. :-)
Thanks,
Steve

This is where the Adobe DNG could shine.
http://www.adobe.com/products/dng/index.html
Worth the read ... this can save the changes that one
makes.
DNG does NOT help in this case.
There is a huge misunderstanding that this is part of what DNG can or should do.
But if you think about it, what good are the adjustments being stored in DNG if you have to use a particular program to open it anyway?
Think about Aperture's Edge Sharpen for a second. Lets say you store that value in a DNG. Fine, what other program is going to able to reproduce that result EXACTLY to how you were previewing it at 100% on your monitor?
Lighroom is trying to do something along these lines by passing editing commands off to Bridge through DNG. But here you run into another problem - it constrains what editing any one program can do. If Lightroom is limited to only ever having editing commands that are the same as what Bridge offers, and no other program on earth supports them, then what have you really accomplished? Will unknown editing commands simply be dropped without warning?
That's why I think simply exporting projects, which hold master images alongside sidecar files (very like XMP) that describe edits are about as good as you are going to get. If you want to truly preserve editing work and you care about quality, nothing beats a TIFF file where 100% of the pixels are exactly as you reviewed them during editing. I personally trust Aperture enough to back up master images along with edits, and am fine with that.

InDesign. Is it possible to flattern linked images?

Quick question..
Is it possible to flatten or merge linked images in InDesign, rather than package or preflight which would double up on the size of images stored on our system. Also to solve the problem if images were moved or deleted.
thanks
Charlotte

My typical workflow would not be working from a server. I find that server lags can crash indesign, and that's particularly bad if you're in the middle of saving a file.
What I find better here is to work on all files locally. When the job is finished it's packaged up to the server. Unfortunately the image data has to be included somewhere, whether as links or physically embedded in the file.
You need to figure out if you need to keep hi-res images of the files. What you can back up on the server etc.
Is it just the size that's an issue?

Linked images do not load in my website

Hi all,
I built my website in Photoshop and Flash Catalyst. My site takes forever to load and my linked images do not load when they should. Can someone please help me with getting the load time down and loading the liked images. I linked them because I though that would cut down on the load time, but when I click the thumbnail the images doesn't appear right away it takes a while. What am I doing wrong? I really need to get my portfolio up. Also how small should my swf file be right now it's at 8.79MB. I am a designer and new to Flash Catalyst so any suggestions will help. Thanks!

Here's a super post from FlashCats:

Creating a linked image in your email signature

Since you cannot add a URL link to an image directly in the Prefs/Signature window, do the following:
1. Open a new message window. Paste (or drag & drop) any suitable image. Highlight it.
2. Go to Menu>Edit>Link>Add... and type or paste your URL link.
3. Go to Preferences>Signatures and copy & paste the new linked image, along with any other info.
4. Assign your new signature to your account(s).
In my case, my email signature includes a "View my profile on Linkedin" button that people click on to go there.

I use this method:

Linked images not showing

Hi,
We're running Illustrator CS4 across a suite of 12 Macs on OS X 10.6.8. Over the last couple of weeks, several accounts have been hit with the same problem, that linking an image in an Illustrator document will not show the images, but just a bounding box. The link information is correct, but I've found no way of getting the image to show, aside from embedding it. Furthermore, saving a document in this state will cause Illustrator to crash when trying to reopen the document.
We use network accounts for the Macs, so all installs are local on each machine, but users access their profile directly from our server. Therefore, all links reference a location on our network and not the local drive. However, there does not seem to be anything wrong with the installs as the issue is with accounts and not the individual client. Once the issue occurs for a user, it occurs on any Mac they log into, while unaffected users can use any Mac without issue.
Our network has run in this state for a year now and the problem has only surfaced recently. I've tried clearing user's preference files relating to Illustrator, but this has had no effect. It's also random when creating a new user on the network, as some will have the issue and others not, despite all being created with the same set of default preferences.
If anyone has come across anything similar, or has any idea of what to look at with this, I'd be very grateful for some help.
Thanks,
Simon

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the response. First of all, you'll have to excuse me if I get a few points wrong, as I'm not too familiar with Illustrator. However, in answer to your questions;
The layers panel is showing "<Linked File>" next to an empty white box.
Turning off preview does show the boxes you describe.
I've no idea how to go about checking if an image is beyond the mask bounds. However, I've used the same image for testing across accounts and it displays fine on those that aren't having this issue.
Also, in the top left corner of Illustrator, the name os the linked image does display and the options available when clicking that do seem correct and working. Relinking from there does nothing, but I can open the image for editing etc. None of this helps in getting the image to display though.
As for the server side, we have always used a Mac server at the same version as the clients.
Thanks,
Simon
