How to "straighten" photos in iWeb?

Hi All,
I'm just starting to use iWeb and trying to learn the ins and outs.
One thing I can't seem to find is a "straighten" feature for photos once they are placed in a page. For example, when selecting the "adjustments" one is presented with the usual palette (exposure, brightness, saturation, etc), but no "straighten" option (as in iPhoto) to fix photos that are a little off horizontally.
I'm not talking about rotating the entire image, just fixing the straightness within an image that is already placed.
Anyone know how to do this in iWeb? Or do I have to edit my photos before importing them?
Thanks

iWeb doesn't have the full compliment of editing tools as it expects the user to do that outside of iWeb before importing in. You'll need to do that in iPhoto and then import into iWeb.

How to straighten photos

I get the photo to turn so it's where it should be but how to make it stay that way? As soon as I release it reverts.

You're welcome. I'm curious, what did you have to do to fix it ? Thank you, Bob.

How can you Copyright your photos in iWeb

Does anyone know how to copyright your photos in iWeb so that others can download your images and claim them as their own?? thanks

Press: Option+"G" and you will have this "©" after it put your name as:
©Fito Pardo 2007
In photoshop or a program like this put your copyright notice on top of your photos like I did it:

If you like no one to download your pictures I recomend to you to put your images like here:
http://www.cinematograf.com/Media/StillPortfolio/StillPortfolio.html
So is more dificult for others to use them as their own as this pictures are in way less resolution than prints and is very difficult to use video images on a catalog, it look like crap.
And there is another way
Put your images like I did in video, then place a box layer on top of the video and make that box transparent:
Under the "Inspector" window, go to "Graphic", then go to "Opacity" and make the square "0%", make shure is on top of your whole video so no one can download your video.
This is actually the best way, but then again if you don't put a copyright notice like the "Belinda" pictures I did (she is a Latin Pop Star, That is why I put that copyright notice on top of every shot, there is a lot of fans who like to have some of those pictures) you will still have to worry about:
"Shift" + "Command" (Or Apple) + "4"
That one is the command to copy what ever you want on the screen
I hope this works for you

How do I Add Music to the Slideshow in photos in Iweb

How do I add a song from my itunes library to play while viewing the slideshow portion of my photos in Iweb'09? I have tried this numerous times throughout the day today but am getting nowhere.
Also, can I add a video portion of the Letterman Top Ten list to a page in my Iweb?
Thanks

That's not an option with iWeb. You can add a song to the photos page that will play automatically (and loop if desired) that would continue to play when the viewer clicks on the slideshow button. This demo page has such a setup.
I don't remember if Cyclosaurus (our resident javascript expert) had posted a solution via javascript and an HTML snippet. You might search the entire iWeb forums for posts by Cyclosaurus with a topic of slideshow music or something similar.

How do I edit my photos in iphoto? I want to straighten photos and remove some of the dead area.

First off it would be good to learn how to use iPhoto - editing is one of the most basic operations - what version of iPhoto do you have? Have you watched the videos and looked in Help?
In general you select the photo can click edit - to straighten you use the "Straighten tool" - to remove areas around the photo you use the "crop tool"

Using iWeb want background photo to cover the entire computer screen. how large a photo do i need?

Am using iweb. Want to put a large photo across the entire computer screen, not just the web page. How large a photo do I need?

Have a look :
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3563737/Lycos/Beach.html
Use your own image and paste the code in a HTML snippet.
The size of the image depends on the size of the browser window of your visitor. And it will never be larger than the browser window.

How do I control the size of my photos in iWeb?

Hello
I wish to ask if it is possible to control the size of a photo in iWeb when publishing photos.
What I want is that people can press on any photo in my collection and see it in high resolution. But at the moment it is messing with my photos. Some come up tiny regardless of them being a 4MB Pixel shot, and most of them if not all of them are restricted to one size...
Thank you...
-Steve

iWeb resizes photos in the following cases -
When using the of the photograph templates where you drag and drop your pictures:
1) Size is capped at 800px x 800px for the slide
2) Files are compressed, usually ~120KB\
3) New thumbs are created (the small image you click on); those tend to be 35-45KB.
If you add a shadow, reflect or graphic option - odds are iWeb will convert your JPEG into a PNG and file size mushrooms. I've been created very compact banners, but due to PNG coversion the size has gone up by 6-8x...
I have NOT looked into just adding a photo to page and seeing what happens to the file size. Most of my tug of war has been with slide show and trying to understand why the 300-500KB files I was using were looking so bad. Now that I know iWeb is doing, I can sort of work around it.
It doesn't mean I'm happy. I'm going to add a gallery page with my favorites, format for roughly 1000x800 and keep the file size around 400 KB. I do all the file resizing in Photoshop CS2.
To put all this in perspective, i have around 325 picture uploaded - most were resized to 450 KB for the web. That 146 MB just for pictures. Add another 10 MB for web content, etc. I thought ~160MB should be used up on the iDisk. Due to iWeb's compression, usage is only 70 MB for this site.

Photos on iWeb (closer looks)

Hello!
How do you set up photos on iWeb so that when they are published, you can click on them and they open a separate window and show you a close up?
Thanks!

bg:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. They do that already. Publish them to a photos page and when published and clicked on they will open in a larger window with a tray of thumbnails across the top. The slideshow also opens up to a larger size that can be paused to view more at leisure. Here's an example.
To get larger images that what's there you would have to upload a larger version, pixel wise, and then do a text link to each. That's not a good alternative. There may be other 3rd party slidehshow java file add on packages for the slideshow that might produce a larger size.
NOTE: Didn't notice you were using iWeb 1 so the example I gave is from iWeb 2.

Show location map (geodata) of photo in iWeb

Hello,
A few months ago I bought my first Mac. I've just (re-)created my website with iWeb '09.
I would like to show the geodata (location info) of my photo's on my website.
On my other laptop (a Windows machine) I use JetPhoto to create webalbums. If a geotag is found, the software adds a "map" hyperlink to the description. When a user clicks this link a google map will open and shows the location of the photo.
In iPhoto I can see the geotags as well (click on the i and the location is shown). In the preferences of Iphoto I have set the option "show location of published photo's". However iWeb doesn't show the location data. I tried geotagging a photo out of iPhoto, re-import and publish to iWeb, same result: no location. I even used HoudahGeo to write the geodata directly to the original image files that iPhoto uses. But without result.
Is it possible to have iWeb show the location of my photo's? Maybe a 3rd party plugin?
Roy

I asked JetPhoto if there is a way to integrate their albums with iWeb...
probably not, and I doubt it if anyone in these forums know how to tie KML and iweb.
but it can be done, as you can see in the previous post. it's a complicate process...

Photos for iWeb: do they need to be sized, or does the program do that?

I have a number of fairly large files that i want to use in a little website I'm making in iWeb.Do I need to rez down, sharpen, etc? Or can I just import?

It can help to resize/optimize before adding to iWeb. It all depends on how many and how big the overall site is. For my photo pages with around 60 photos I just let iWeb do it's thing.
If you have a lot of photos you can batch resize/optimize them with an application like Resize!. With it you can set the pixel dimensions you want and the amount of jpeg compression (Quality). Since Resize! creates new files in a new folder you can experiment with quality levels until you get the smallest size possible that still meets your visual quality requirements.
Before you add those photos to iWeb turn off iWebs optimizing so that they get added just as you created them. If you add them to a photo page iWeb resizes to 800 x 600 so use those dimensions for your resizing. If you add a photo to a page iWeb always changes its size a bit and adds a stroke to it. You can remove the stroke and get it to the size you created via the Inspector/Graphic pane (for the stroke) and the Inspector/Metrics pane (for the size).

How do I upgrade from iWeb 2.0.4 to iWeb 3? I don't see it on the app store.

I've looked everywhere -- how do I go from iWeb '08 to a newer version?

It is now apparent that iWeb, and iDVD, is no longer supported by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
All of these issues can be solved with 3rd party options.
I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken. If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows. Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
Click to view full size
However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone. How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
Apple has announced that iLife is now an unsupported product and those iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the boxed iLife 11 at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought. Personally, if I already didn't have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.

Crop & Straighten photos problems

Not sure if this can help anyone having problems using "Crop & Straighten photos"!
I'm using CS3 (but I'm guessing the problem may exist in other versions) to try and subdivide a huge pile of old scanned prints. To make the job easier, I scanned with only 2 images on the platen so that there is plenty of white space around each image.
When I try and apply the "Crop & Straighten photos" command, in almost every case it fails, only creating a duplicate image which looks ALMOST identical to the original. However if I then apply "Crop & Straighten photos" to that copy, it works perfectly.
What I discovered is that my scanners (both HP models, a flat bed and an all-in-one) both create a scan with a fairly thick black edge on two sides of the image.
So when I apply "Crop & Straighten photos", Photoshop thinks (quite correctly) that the image actually extends to the edge of the original scan, and there is therefore nothing to divide.
The solution is to re-size the original image to 99%., and then apply "Crop & Straighten photos" and it works perfectly. So far 99% has worked on all the images I've tried, but it may need to be changed to 98 or lower in exceptional circumstances. Since the scanned photos are well away from the edges, there is no danger of cropping any of the originals scans, but be on the lookout just in case.
Finally, I created an action to crop to 99% and save all the images (to a new directory), meaning I could automate that step, and then I used the script provided elsewhere in this forum to automate the "Crop & Straighten photos".
Works a treat, and saves loads of time
Colin

Here is a web site that looks like it will show you how to do it. If not look at similar sites.

How do delete photos from iPhone but keep them on the cloud?

Is it possible to delete photos from an iPhone but keep them on the cloud? If not what is the purpose of buying extra storage for icloud If you phone can only hold up to 128gb?
finding it hard to get a straight answer on this, so maybe have to go to a local shop and find out.

Refer to this Faq.
How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
iCloud Photo Library can move the original high-resolution photos and videos to iCloud and
replace them with lightweight, device-optimized versions on your iOS device. This helps you
make the most of your device storage while giving you access to more photos than ever.
You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings >
Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You will need
an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
Yes I want to know the answer too.
If I subscribe to iCloud storage but my iPhone can just hold up to 16 gb.
Why do I have to do it ? to make my iPad see photos from my iPhone?
I did try to disable icloud photo while i had 1gb photos stored in my iPhone
and wipe them out, yes ,nothing left, 0 data. but when I turn on iCloud Photo -
again. everything come back as preview photos but when I look at each, my phone
will download them all anyway. so, how can you manage space on devices actually?
if I have 16 gb on my phone , So I can see all of my 1tb photos on iCloud ?
and have enough space on the phone to do other things right?

I am trying to find out, how to manage photos from all these devices using one account on iMAC. Second question is if there is any finction in iPhoto that can publish images to NAS server?

Did anyone somehow solved this configuration? Thanks
