I am working on a site using FrontPage 03. The site requires a typical photo gallery with clickable thumbnails to see enlarged versions. Photoshop CS2 created a very functional and acceptable canned version. Now my problem is this....

Photoshop apparently expects that the gallery is going to be an independent website because everything is based on an "index" page. Does anyone know how I can alter this a bit so that the photo gallery will still function WITHIN my site...meaning how can I have to "index" pages one being my home page and the other being the photo gallery?

If anyone has any help or suggestions or knows of a FAQ article that would be great!! Thank you very much.
 
Here's how I'v done it. Lets say in your site folder you have a folder for "Photos". In the fold Make a folder for your New Gallery. When you create the gallery using Photoshop.. point it to the New Gallery folder. Everything will go in there.

Now .... on your site .. on the page you want to list your gallery, when you creat a link to go to that gallery ... you link it to the index file in that particular folder.

Mine is created in Dreamweaver but the galleries were done with in Photoshop. Hope this helps. Someone else has probably don't it differently. But this has worked for me.
