- DESIGNER'S CLUB WEB FILES USER'S GUIDE
- --------------------------------------
- All documentation assumes you have a basic understanding of how to use your computer,
- the programs you have purchased for it, and the process of creating Web pages.
-
- Each Designer's Club issue will now include 32 images in GIF format for use on the
- World Wide Web. Six of these files will be animated GIF images. These images are
- found in a directory called "WEBFILES."
-
- Each issue will include a mix of small images, perfect for buttons, and larger images
- for spot art. Web-safe colors assure clean color on Mac or PC - no dithering, no
- color shifts. File sizes and palettes are minimized for fast downloading.
-
- Each image has up to three versions: one that can be used on any background, one
- optimized for a white background, and when appropriate for the style of the art, one
- optimized for a black background. Full transparency means no unsightly background
- box.
-
- NAMING CONVENTIONS
- ------------------
-
- "A" following the number means it can be used on any background
- (for example, 00001A.GIF)
-
- "B" following the number means it can be used on a black background
- (for example, 00026B.GIF)
-
- "W" following the number means it can be used on a white background
- (for example, 00026W.GIF)
-
- "A" preceding the number means it is animated
- (for example, A00028A.GIF would be an animated file that could be used on any
- background; A00028B.GIF would be an animated file that could be used on a black
- background.)
-
-
- SEE THE ANIMATED IMAGES IN ACTION
- ---------------------------------
- To see how the images have been animated, open the HTML file for that month (for
- example: DC0597.HTM). This file is located in the \WEBFILES\MMYYHTML\ directory
- (where MMYY represents the CD month and year). In Microsoft Internet Explorer, go
- to the FILE menu and select OPEN. In Netscape Navigator go to the FILE menu and
- select OPEN FILE IN BROWSER. If you are using a browser other than Explorer or
- Navigator, follow your normal procedures for opening HTML documents. You will then
- be presented with an animated index of all six images.
-

- permission - for multiple resale in the form of stock proofs, engravings, film, mats,
