Go to computer A204-29 in the A204 math science computer laboratory on
a Tuesday or Thursday. You might have to ask a laboratory monitor (Gloreen Malakai,
Cathy Ezekiah, or Carmen Chon) to bump a student from email to use the scanner.
- Place your picture on the scanner in the upper right corner.
- Click on the Windows 95 start menu.
- Go to the Programs menu.
- Select the Photostudio in that menu. Photostudio will have a folder icon.
- Choose Photostudio 2.0 in the Photostudio folder.
- Click on File.
- Choose Acquire>>Acquire from the menu and submenu. At this point you may see
"Warming up the lamp."
- Followed by a similar dialog box saying "Scanning the preview image."
- After a few minutes your picture will appear in the right panel of the Deskscan II
scanning software. On the left is a control panel. Some of entries may appear different
from the image below. For the most part you can ignore the control panel at this point.
- In Deskscan II you can let Deskscan scan the whole image or by clicking and dragging,
select only a portion of your image that you want to scan. When you ready, click the Final
button to scan the image or the portion of the image you selected into Photostudio.
- In Photostudio under the Transform menu you can determine your image size. The image can
be resized from this menu. Under the Enhance menu the item Equalization sometimes improves
a picture's appearance. If it does not, then choose Undo from the Edit menu. Another
option under Enhance is brightness and contrast. Changing the brightness and contrast can
improve a picture that is too dark or too light.
- When the image is what you want, save the image to your floppy disk using Save as.
- Open up the Save as type drop down list and select JPEG.
- Then use quotes to force Photostudio to save your file in all lowercase letters. Give
your image file a meaningful and unique name. Do not use names such as
"friends.jpg" because there is a risk you will be using the same file name as
another student. This will cause problems when the file is posted to the Internet.
- If you now check you floppy disk you should see the image file.
- If the image and the HTML file are both on the same floppy disk, then the code for
entering this particular image into a web page would be:
- <p><img src="kosraendancer.jpg" width="242"
height="235" alt="Kosraen dancer at Menca"></p>
Your image file
and your html file must be on the same floppy disk!
- The width and height are optional, the alternate display property (alt) is not optional
in HTML 4.01. The width and height values will be different for each and every image.
Only Photostudio can tell you the correct height and width. Height and width
should be in pixels.
- Note that the img tag (an "inline" element) must be contained within a p tag
(a "block" element). This will be true of other "inline" tags: they
must nested inside of a "block" level element such as <p></p> or a
header level tag such as <h1></h1>.
Hyperlinks are another inline element. The tag code for hyperlinks is a for
"anchor." A basic hyperlink code snippet will look like:
<p><a href="http://www.kosraevillage.com">Visit the Kosrae
Village Resort</a></p>
Note that the anchor tag must be closed with a </a> element. The href
property is the destination URI. The text between the <a> and </a> elements is
the text displayed on the web page. The above code snippet would have the following
appearance:
Visit the Kosrae Village Resort
To determine if a web page conforms to the HTML 4.01 standard go to http://validator.w3.org/file-upload.html
and upload the web page. The Validator will inform you of any problems with the web
page.
- Go to: http://shark.comfsm.fm/~dleeling/cis/marlin.jpg
- Right click on the image and save the image to your floppy disk. Add this image to
your previous web page work with the appropriate tags. The image is 194 pixels
(picture elements) wide and 200 pixels in height.
- Add a hyperlink to http://www.pbs.org/kids that
says "My favorite web site!" to your web page.
- Check your web page for validity.
Go to A204 on a Tuesday or Thursday with a photograph. Scan the photograph.
Add the image to your web page. Use your own name for the web page file name.
