Directions for Using the Thumbnail index template.

This template is similar to the Class Project Template, 
but the index displays postage-stamp-size ("thumbnail") 
images that link to each of the student pages when you 
click on them. 

1. Copy this folder to your hard drive. Double-click on the 
   copy of the folder. Select "Select All" from the Edit menu.
   Right-click on any one of the files and select "Properties"
   from the pop-up menu.Click on the "Read-only" box so that 
   it is not checked and click OK.

Note: To add more pages to the site, simply go to the last page (page30.htm), 
select Edit with Notepad, and INCREASE EACH NUMBER ON THE PAGE BY 1
(for example, change 30 to 31, 29 to 30, 31 to 32, etc).  Save 
the page with a filename that is one higher, e.g. if it was 
"page30.htm", save it as "page31.htm". Repeat for as many pages 
as you need.

2. Copy the graphic files (in jpg format) into the same folder.

3. Rename the graphics "p1.jpg", "p2.jpg", "p3.jpg", 
   etc, in the order that they are to appear in the slide show.
   (If the graphics are not in JPG format, either use a graphics
   editor to change their format into JPG or change the graphic 
   links on each html file to reflect the actual format 
   of the graphics).

4. Use your image editor program (or the "Batch Thumbs" program 
   on the workshop CD-ROM) to create thumbnail images for each 
   picture (roughly 100 X 70 pixels in size). Name the thumbnails 
   as "T1.jpg", "T2.jpg", "T3.jpg", etc. 

4. Edit the index page, "index.htm" in a text editor such as NotePad
   or SimpleText.   Replace the placeholder " Main title " and 
   " Sub-title " with your titles. In the body of the index, 
   replace each placeholder "TITLE" with your own page titles. 
   Save it.

6. Open each of the numbered pages (e.g. page1.htm, page2.htm, etc) 
   in a text editor such as NotePad or SimpleText.   Replace the       
   upper-case placeholder text with the title, sub-title, and
   mail text for each page.  Save it.  Repeat for each page.

7. To view the site, open "index.htm" in a Web browser.
   Click on a thumbnail image to go to that page.
