Fine Tuning Photo Gallery Layouts

After you create a Photo Gallery with Microsoft FrontPage® version 2002 to display photos or images on your Web site, you can fine-tune the layout at any time. When using one of the four different types of photo gallery layouts available, FrontPage saves you time by automatically sizing the layout's thumbnail images and placing them in the order they were added. You can fine-tune your layout by adjusting thumbnail sizes and reordering the images themselves using Photo Gallery Properties. 

To fine-tune your layouts using Photo Gallery Properties, open a new page and create a new photo gallery or open a page with an existing gallery in FrontPage 2002, and do the following:

1. Right-click anywhere on the photo gallery in Normal view and select Photo Gallery Properties.
2. To resize an image's thumbnail, select the image in the list under the Add button.
3. Click in the Width: box under Thumbnail size: and enter a new value or use the up and down arrows to increase or decrease the width of the thumbnail. 

Note: If the Maintain aspect ratio box is checked, it is unnecessary to change the Height: value. It is automatically adjusted when you click on that box or perform any other changes in Photo Gallery Properties. 

4. To reorder images in your layout, select the image you want to work with and use the Move Up or Move Down buttons.
5. When your fine-tuning is complete, click OK and select Preview.
6. To undo your changes return to Normal view and from the Edit menu, select Photo Gallery Properties. To keep your changes, save the page.

Tip: To force all the thumbnail images in your layout to be the same size, select Set as default size: and then select each image in the list of images, one at a time, to apply the new thumbnail size.
