How to use these Photographs
After viewing these pages of JPEG photographs, you can use these images in your own Web pages by copying and pasting the URL of the photo in to your HTML page. You can download the image as well but it is prefered that you link, using the URL, to the graphic if you are using the university servers for your web pages. This saves space on the server. Instead of saving these images to your directory, you can copy the URL of the image, and point to it as a link in your Web page.

For example, if you view the Meriam Library Photographs, and would like to display one of the images on your Web page, then you would do the following:

1. Navigate to the Meriam Library Photographs page. If you want one of the thumbnails displayed here, skip to Step 3

2. Click on the thumbnail image of the larger pictue that you want.

3. To find the URL of the image that you want to use, do the following: On a Macintosh, click on the image and hold down untill a menu pops up or on a PC right-click on the image, then choose the option to "open this image" or "copy this image location." If you choose "open this image," the photo that you wanted will appear in it's own window. Select the location or URL in the bar at the to pof your browser window and copy the image location. If you choose "copy this image location" you have already copied the image location.

4. To put this image on your page, depending on which html editor you use, you then paste the URL into your HTML page. The URL will look something like this:

<IMG SRC="http://www.csuchico.edu/weblogos/photos/mlib/thumb/mlib4.jpg">

When your HTML page is viewed on-line you will be able to see the image on your Web page.

For Example The URL for the Meriam Library photo on the left is: http://www.csuchico.edu/ weblogos/photos/mlib/thumb/mlib4.jpg In the above URL of this photo you can see that the photo is in the "mlib" (Meriam Library) directory which is in the" photos" directory which is in the "imc" (Instructional Media Center) directory on the university server. back to top

Saving Photographs to your Computer

If you want to save the image to your computer choose to "download image to disk" or "save this image as..." instead of trying to find the images URL as in the third step in "How to use these Photographs" above. All of the photograph files are in JPEG file format..
