How to Frame an Image

Just cut and paste the source of these frames, vary the width as you like. The color of the frame will be a shade of the background color of your web page, which can be independent of a background image.

This one is a double frame, looks a bit fancier but it can overwhelm some graphics.

 


How to Place the Background on Your Page

 

The following code goes directly after the </title> command, before the </head> and <body> commands on your
page. Copy and paste the following into your html code:

<body background="file.gif" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">

 

The words "file.gif" above should be replaced with the actual file name of the background you are using, and you must also upload the background gif or jpg file to your server in the same directory as the page using the background for this code to work.

The "bgcolor" sets the base background color that appears underneath the background; this will appear first, then will not show at all unless you are using tables with borders. The color "#FFFFFF" is white. The "text" sets the base color for text in your document; the color "#000000" is black.


How to Link Back

 

Place the following code on your page where you wish the "Design by the Moon" logo to appear. Copy below by cutting and pasting into your document:

<p><center><font face="Arial">Graphic Design by the...</font><table border=10><tr><td><a href="http://members.tripod.com/mirar">
<img src="moonlogs.gif" height=60 width=147 border=0></a></td></tr></table></center><p>

 

Graphic Design by the...

That's all there is to it!!! Now, here's the image file to copy that goes with the code; just use the right button of your mouse (IBM compatible) over the image (Click-Hold if using a MAC) area in the frame and save as "moonlogs.gif" to your hard drive - then, remember to upload the image to your server when you upload your revised web pages.
