    Newbie Website Moderator???

    I am taking over the running of a website for a charitable organisation and it was previously set up by another colleague. All the data has been transferred onto a hard disc and now transferred to my PC.

    However none of the images have transferred - only the text. Where the images should have been is a white box with "image not found" and when I try to replace with new images it only seems to be "sitting" on top of the white box.

    I havent published any pages yet as the website has not been updated for a few weeks. After watching the video tutorials I went through the process of publishing a page so as I am familiar with the process. However I do not have the username and password - so when I do get these will I be able to change the IP address for my laptop because at the moment it is offering many IP address in the drop down menu however not one for my PC.

    Thanks in advance for any help and advice for a inexperienced newbie!

    You will quite likely find that the images don't have the same directory path on your machine as the one they came from. All you can do is D/click on the image box a re-insert them & save.
    Alternately! You can create a folder on your server & upload all your images & use a bit of html in a html box with the code below.

    <img src="http://www.barnetwalks.co.uk/images/hadley-wood/monken-hadley-village-gate.jpg" alt="Monken Hadley gate" align="top" border="0" style="width:336px;height:448px;">

    Change the part in blue to your image & the part in red to the image size. The part in red would be better if it is the actual size on the image.
    Doing it this way saves you ever having to worry about your images when changing computers.
