rules of
thumb
  • Collect images to be used into a central location (folder)
  • Use lowercase files names that are meaningful with no spaces or special characters for all images and web pages.
  • Anchor your webpage in folder with images BEFORE you begin editing your webpage!!
  • Use file extension consistently (all HTML or HTM)
