Pictures resize on iweb page

I've just started to build a web page with iweb. I size all my pictures in photoshop to the right size and then drag them into iphoto. There seems to be a problem with some of the pictures when I pull them into the web page as they reduce in size and it means I can't use them. Would anyone know why this is?
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If over a certain pixel size iWeb will automatically reduce photos to a smaller size (so really large photos don't overwhelm the iWeb window). To get them back to the size you want select the photo and bring up the Inspector/Metrics pane
Click to view full size
and click on the Original Size button.
Also some themes will automatically add a frame/border to graphics/photos when they are added to a page. To remove the frame you'll need to use the Inspector/Graphics pane and remove the frame there.

Open Pics On iWeb page?

So when I move pictures onto my iWeb page, it resizes them to a smaller size than the original size. But is there any way to make it where someone can click that picture to show its original size? Or just a larger size?

That's what iWeb does when you drag a photo or graphic onto an iWeb page. Different themes will also add a frame to the item. To get it back to the original size go to the Inspector/Metric pane and click on the "Original Size" button. Then you can drag it to where you want it on the page.
Click to view full size
As far as having someone click on a thumbnail and get a larger size the easiest method is to add photos to photos page or an album from iPhoto in the Media Browser to an Albums page. Then when you click on the thumbnail you'll get the larger size like in this demo page: iPhoto Book as an iWeb Slideshow
For the album page method see this demo page: iPhoto Albums
Now is you want to have a thumbnail on a regular iWeb page and have a larger version popup when you click on it see this demo page: Fancy Zoom & Image Popup.
There's also a rollover method where rolling the cursor over an image will change it. Example #3 on this demo page has the second version a larger image: Rollover-gifs
Still another method: Open an item in a new window without a button
So there are a number of different ways to get what you want.

Avoiding server duplication of the same picture used in multiple pages

I've scanned hundreds of family slides and would like to share them on iWeb grouped by person (face). I've identified family members with Faces and created Smart Albums for each face grouping. I'm concerned I will have lot of redundancy of the same picture getting published each time when that picture includes two or more people for whom I have a face album/page.
This is an area where iWeb could be a huge time saver if each time you chose to publish a page, it checked whether the included pictures had already been published to the server (on different pages), and then instead of pushing those pictures to the server again (duplicating them), it made links (references) to the pictures already on the sever. Any chance iWeb does this?
It's the same concept as Playlists in iTunes; and Events, Albums, and Faces (on the corkboard) in iPhoto--songs/pictures are not duplicated for each list or group, they're just referenced.
I guess I'm asking if there's a way to avoid duplicating pictures on the server so that pages reference the same picture when it appears in multiple pages. I suppose I could do this manually, but that seems daunting. If iWeb doesn't do this today, it'd certainly be a handy feature for a future release.
Thanks for any thoughts or help.

Read this blog : [How to display a remote picture in your iWeb page|http://www.wyodor.net/Tutorials/ImageWidget/ImageWidget.html]
Works well with one or two pictures. Not with lots of pictures. [See this page|http://www.wyodor.net/Tutorials/ImageWidget/GetID.html]
Otherwise, create some external pages where you can use the same image over and over again and embed it in the iWeb page.

When I add pictures into MUSE , do the pictures resize for web quality (And so the page loads fast enough) or do I have to do this using an external software like photoshop, etc. ? Thank You

Also is there any way I can change the contact form email for all of my contact forms at once.
I have over 100 contact forms and i want to make them reach the same email anyway I can do that without going one by one?

If you have placed the image in Muse using File > Place and then scaled the image down in Muse while editing, then Muse publishes/exports the scaled down/optimized image in final output. When using as a Fill, the output size depends on the Fitting option you setup in the Fill options.
As for the contact form email, you would need to specify the email address for each form individually. There is no workflow to edit the same for multiple forms at a time.

Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

Help! I reinstalled my Mac and erased my iWeb page in the program.Its published, is there any way to download the pages from Mobile Me?

To download your pages from MobileMe simply mount your iDisk.
Then navigate to the Web > Sites folder where the pages are.
You can't do anything with them however, since iWeb cannot import them. But it's nice to know that you can download them.
You need the domain.sites2 files, iWeb uses to store its assets. Perhaps you have a backup?
See this page for pictures and movies to learn how to use the domain file :

Upload photos and text to an existing iWeb page from an internet cafe?

Hi,
I plan to do a trip and created already an iWeb page on my .mac account. During my trip, I would now like to upload pictures and personal comments on my existing webpage. Can I do this in an normal internet cafe via my internet .mac account?
I have checked this internet account and there is a button "web page" but my original webpage does not appear.
Thanks for your help!

You can't modify anything in an iWeb site except by using a Mac with iWeb installed and also the Domain file that created the site.
.Mac Web Galleries let you upload photos by email.

How do I insert a spreadsheet in a iweb page

Is there a way to insert a spreadsheet in a iweb page?
I need to insert a listing of names and addresses along with pictures for each line. It is an officer listing with pictures for a club.

Is the spread sheet in Excel? If so then
1 - export as an HTML page.
2 - open the page with a text editor.
3 - copy all of the text.
4 - open iWeb and insert an HTML snippet in you web page.
5 - paste the html page into the snippet.
An example of that can be found on this demo page: Tables.

Center-align iWeb pages?

Is there a code to use to center align an iWeb page, as in vertically, so that no matter what screen size/resolution you have, the page will stay in the middle of the browser, instead of at the top?

All objects on an iWeb page are fixed and do not move when a browser window is resized. The page itself is centered horizontally.
iWeb does not support vertically centered pages. And from other forums I gather it is not easily done with custom code.
But it can be done. Here's a custom page that centers and scales in all directions :
http://www.wyodor.net/Centered/
Study the code.
To make it work in iWeb you need a JavaScript and knowledge of how iWeb creates its pages.
Perhaps this page guides you in the direction you want. If you can resize the objects, you can resize the page vertically :

How can I export iDVD into iWeb Page?

I made a short DVD by sending iPhoto pictures to iDVD. Everything works fine: music, captions etc., but I cannot get it into my iWeb page. Is there any way now to export it to iMovie so iWeb can take it?
Frank

Frank:
You need to export the slideshow from iPhoto to a Quicktime movie and then add that movie to iWeb. Did you export just the photos and add the music, captions, etc there?
There are a couple of ways to add a movie to iWeb and avoid having the movie load while the page is loading: 1 - QT movies; 2 - Opening Movie in New, Specially Sized Window.
The key is toexport out of iPhoto as a QT movie.

Publishing iWeb pages from 2 different Macs

I have recently bought a MacBook to complement my G4 Powermac desktop - the desktop has iLife05 installed and the MacBook iLife06.
I am really enjoying using the iWeb application and would like to be able to publish iWeb pages from both my MacBook and my desktop mac. Is there anyway I can get iLife06 transferred onto my desktop. I have already been firewiring files between the two - can I do the same with software or do I need to buy iLife all over again?

Hi James,
Your response definitely helped me since my boss and I are trying to maintain a website on both of our computers...
BUT, i have a huge problem. Before I knew how to transfer or find the domain files, I used the "FIND" option to search for the domain site on my computer and when i clicked it open, my site didn't come up but rather a prompt asking me what type of website I'd like to create. For months, the website we created showed up every time I opened iweb but now when i simply clicked on domain.site or whatever it was that turned up in the "Find" folder, I can't bring up or locate the site I created on the computer so I have no way to update it or put it on a disc for my boss... Do you have any idea what caused my site to disappear simply by clicking on domain or any idea where i could find my site??
please help!! thanks!
Vanessa
one more thing: is it possible for my boss to edit the content of the website without iweb? could she do it through the actual website with a password or something? just curious... also if i can't get that original domain site back, is there a way i can transfer my website to a different website other than iweb so that i can keep updating without having to redo the whole thing? even being able to transfer separate blogs from iweb to the original site would work too - anything to not have to redo the welcome page and picture pages that are already online

How to link rollover buttons to iWeb pages?

I've made my roll over buttons, their all ready and set up but I can't link them to my other iweb pages. Can anyone tell me how to do this? I tried publishing the site and setting it to link to url.com/blah (example!) but that doesn't work, it says the page doesn't exist.
It's so simple to link when it's just a picture, why is this so difficult

There are two types of links you can use for linking pages of a website - relative and absolute.
When you choose "Link to: One of my pages" in the Link inspector this creates a relative link.
When you choose to link to an external page you need to enter the full URL to the published page into the box in the Link inspector. Example...
http://www.domain-name.com/site-name/page-name.html

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you use a MobileGallery from iPhoto to house your photos and videos you can set it up in the settings so visitors can upload items to the gallery via email.
Click to view full size
You can them embed the gallery in an iWeb page like this: MobileMe Galleries and Quicktime Movies.
I've not tried emailing a photo to a gallery so can't comment on how well it works.
For photo pages or album pages in iWeb visitors can add comments and attachments, photos, which other visitors can view. How they are added I don't know. Here's what the iWeb Help says about that:
+*About visitor comments and attachments*+
+If you publish your site to MobileMe, you can let visitors add comments and attach files (which other visitors can download) to blog, podcast, and photos pages. These comments and attachments are visible to anyone who visits your website. To prevent automated programs from posting spam to your site, anyone who posts a comment is first required to type a displayed group of characters.+
+Comments appear as soon as they’re posted, and you can delete a comment and its attachment at any time using iWeb or by visiting your site with any browser. You can also turn off comments to prevent new postings without affecting the comments already posted.+
+Comments and attachments are stored on your iDisk. Each comment can be a maximum of 32 kilobytes (KB), and each attachment can be up to 5 megabytes (MB).+

Adding Java to a iWeb page

I am looking into getting an iWeb account and such to create a webpage for a business I am starting. I would be creating virtual tours that would export into Java where the viewer would be able to look into a home by clicking and dragging the pictures to move through the home, and then clicking links in the Java to move to another room in the home.
What I want to know is: Is there a way to add Java to an iWeb page? I have seen that movies and photo albums I create can be added, but what about Java?
Any help on this would be great! THANKS!

If you want to do this, then don't get an MMe account. Use an external host/server that does support java and php. If it is a business site too, it will be more worthwhile, as you get a better service - quicker upload and generally more for your money than MMe can offer. MMe was not designed for business use really, but for ease of personal use with one click publishing.
