MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / October 2006enable pictures to be downloaded by others using publisher 2003
I use publisher 2003 to make my web pages, i then post it to an ftp server, I was wondering how to make it possible for people looking at the site to download (or save) the pictures by right clicking on them, like you would a normal web site? All images you see on a Web Page are retained in your Internet Explorer temporary file until you delete the cache. In Internet Explorer, tools, Internet Options, settings button, view files.

I guess I was thinking more of when you look at a web site and right click on a picture it will ask you if you want to save it, make it your desktop or something to that extent, however on my web page you do not have that option for some reason, you can see what I mean by visiting it varolifamily.com > All images you see on a Web Page are retained in your Internet Explorer > temporary file until you delete the cache.

The right click, save image is disabled in Pub 2003. I think they did it because people thought it would help stop theft of their pictures, but as Mary points out, the images are downloaded and on your computer after viewing the page. Unfortunately MS did not make it optional. There are some workarounds if it is really important to you that people be able to save your pictures.

We use the web page to share family pictures (we are located in MO, OH, UT, FL and PA) so if there is a work around that would be real nice to know. thanks > The right click, save image is disabled in Pub 2003.

Yes it would be nice to know the work around if possible, we use the web page to share family pictures, right now we are located in MO, OH, PA, Fl and UT, so needless to say the web page is almost a must. thanks > The right click, save image is disabled in Pub 2003.

It appears that "save image as" works ok for me in Firefox but it is not there in IE SignatureJohn G Wot's Your Real Problem? > Yes it would be nice to know the work around if possible, we use the > web page [quoted text clipped - 45 lines] >> >> > would a >> >> > normal web site? Yeah, but the quality of the images that are rendered in FireFox leave a lot to be desired.

Amy, There are about a zillion photo sharing sites on the web that would be better than downloading them from your website. Plus some of them would allow your family to order prints instead of downloading them. You could use your site in conjunction with one of those, and simply link to the photo sharing site. However, if you want to download from your site, there are several ways of going about it. I suspect the easiest would be to create a subfolder on your site, perhaps called "images". Then upload your original images to that folder, and write a link to each image, under the image on your site. For example go to http://varolifamily.com/Ohio.htm In publisher insert a text box under each image, and write something like this: "Right click here, and Save As image to your computer to download image", and then insert a hyperlink into the word "here", that would look like this: http://varolifamily.com/images/CindySusieJanet1957.jpg I would also put the file size beside the instructions so people will know how big the download will be. Alternatively they can left click on the image, and it will load in IE, and then they can right click and save if they want.
