September 21, 201015 yr Hi, I am in the process of building a website but want to use a jpg as the homepage in the meantime. The system uses plesk and im wondering where i should upload the image through my ftp. Can anyone advise on this? Thanx John
September 21, 201015 yr your domain name, user and password. Now go to httpdocs Is this what you mean?
September 21, 201015 yr Author yes thats what i mean. On my ftp i have loads of different files including httpdocs and httpsdocs, do i delete all the files in httpdocs then add my jpeg?
September 21, 201015 yr you will need to make a html with the jpg in it. have you done this. Do not delete anything lol, Back it up incase you make mistakes
September 21, 201015 yr Author No iv not built a html page i thought it was possible to just upload an image to the webspace and use that as the page. I am building the website at the moment but its going to take a while so i wanted to quickly upload an image there for now, is this not possible then?
September 21, 201015 yr you need a html page so do it. Nothing hard. <html> <head> <title>Title Goes Here</title> </head> <body> <img src="imagefolder/imagename.jpg" width="whats your width in px" height="whats your height in px" alt="tag here" /> </body> </html> Hope this helps
September 21, 201015 yr Author ahh rite brilliant, thought it would be a bit harder than that thanks a lot for your help.
September 21, 201015 yr Author just one more question, how difficult is it to set the image to open up to a certain percentage depending on screen resolution?
September 21, 201015 yr you will need javascripting within it. To find screen size and perform a image resize. Harder than just putting an image in lol. But do-able Please click on the plus symbol if you have found it helpful Thanks
September 21, 201015 yr Is there a particular reason why you want to use a static image? I don't really see the benefit when you could quickly and easily create a page with an email input field where people interested in your site can subscribe to updates, not to mention including your contact details. You could have the image as the background if you wanted. This would offer you better SEO results for your new URL as well as giving you a head start in securing interested clients (if applicable).
September 21, 201015 yr Author The image just contains my logo and contact details, i am creating a website using joomla which is probably a week away from being completed but i just wanted to put something on there quickly.
