Create a "Web-Ready" Photo Album Tutorial
Adobe Photoshop
Objective: To create a Web-Ready Photo Album using Adobe Photoshop
Introduction: Educators who document class activities and field trips through digital photography now have a simple way to display the highlights of these class/student experiences on the "web". Photoshop has an "automated" function for creating a web-ready photo album. Once a group of digital photo files are placed in a common folder, Photoshop users can follow a few simple "clicks-of-the-mouse" to create the photo album. Photoshop will produce all the necessary html documents to display the pictures on the web. Once these files are created, users just need to "upload" the files to a web space to display the photo album on the "web".
