Great job, as always, Gary! How do you keep the creative juices flowing???

Thx for taking the time to continue to help others...

Great tutorial Gary. Wish I had had it this weekend. I reworked my tired old website using X4 and spent a lot of time figuring out stuff that you cover so well. I see that you show us how to add the "Mailto" to my e-mail address...I couldn't figure that one out. Also glad to learn how to add Flash files to my website. That's my next challenge.....

keep up the great work,
Bill Dale

Bill,
I took a look at your new website that you created using Xara. Wow! Nice job. Your design work is VERY IMPRESSIVE.

Nice one Gary!

Though a tiny tip. For FTP try Filezilla It is free and works very well indeed! (I used to use a paid for FTP but this just worked better)

CORRECTION: On the last page of the Workbook I suggested not using the Pop Up feature because it created a large PNG image that was slow to load.

John (covoxer) was kind enough to point out that if I had read the Help files, I would have learned that you can select any bitmap object and then click the Create New Name yellow tag icon on the Infobar, and name the bitmap JPEG. Just JPEG, nothing more or less.

This forces the bitmap to export as a JPEG. In the case of the Pop Up photo on the About Us page, the file size went from 130K to about 3K.
