Thread: *.png

Hi,

Can anyone help me?

I have created .png files for my website.

Why is it when I download it to BV using "Image" icon, the appear to big?
I attach the link http://www.mytoothcaretips.com/occ/test2.html

Did I do it correctly?

I also notice that the *.png file becomes an image file. That means search engine cannot spider the page?

Please help
thank you.

Hi, it looks like you have cplaced it on the page via backgrounds in properties & it has started to tile/repeat. Are you sure you placed it on the page using image icon at the top of BV & not the shape/table/ or page properties.
On the SE side, i maybe wrong! but i don't think SE's can read a png img .

thanks Chris for replying.

That is the problem. When I click on the add image icon. After publishing I get a blank page.

When I placed it through page properties and background it double tiled.

Is there anyway to resize the file in *.png. I have to convert to jpg. When I do that I cannot have all the pages in the same size. When I resize using pixsizer and indicate the sizing to make them standard, some of the pix turn out strange.

For SE, I think you're right. I will use the add text icon on top of the pic.

Please advise.

Hi Chris,

I did another test http://www.mytoothcaretips.com/occ/test6.html

I convert the .png to html and then open in BV as existing html file. (I can resize it at NVU without distorting the picture). When I upload, the png page is gone.

Why....

Please help....
thank you.

You have to copy and paste the html source code from VNU to a an HTML box in bv, place on the page and then publish.

BTW you are not actually resizing the image in html, what you are doing resizing how the image appears. The full size image is actually uploded to the server, so thats why its not resized in bv.

Hi, was having a play. Not sure what happened on your side, but see if this looks any good http://www.metestsite.co.uk/png3.html Have converted the png to a jpg placed it on a page & just used a background colour to match.
It has also brought the image down to 135ish kb from 333kb. But it has slightly darkened the image.

Hi Chris,

it looks great....

this question might sound silly but how did you bring the image down to 135kb?

Hi, i personally use MS picture manager. But PIXresizer will do the same job. Just make sure you check the boxes that should be ticked if using PIXresizer.

Good luck..

thanks Chris.....
